Xbox Users Too Impatient for Class Action

Posted by Zonk on from the website-with-a-message dept.

Danilo Campos writes "I got a little irritated when Microsoft wanted me to pony up $80 to repair my out-of-warranty Xbox for a hardware failure that is very, very well-known. Slashdot recently reported a class action aimed at solving this very problem. That will take too long and cost everyone too much. The only ones who'll be better off are the lawyers. I have instead organized a polite, respectful request by Xbox owners that Microsoft repair or replace any afflicted systems at their own expense. Join the call, won't you?"

    Na. I'll join the call after PS2 owners get Sony to fix their PS2s free of charge.

    Well, get real. There are more chances that Santa Claus is answering this one than Santa Billy.

    never argue with the guy who sells the stuff for a living

    Hahahaha! Thats the funniest thing I've read in a long time. Take a trip down to Best Buy, have a chat with a salesman there and then say that with a straight face. Bet you can't.
