A COUPLE has sued Microsoft in a Texas court and claimed that the faulty design of an Xbox caused their house to burn down.
Bryan Weatherford and Kimberly Weatherford said in the filing that they bought an Xbox in May 2003 and that the power supply caused an electrical fire on the 24th of January this year. Microsoft recalled 14 million Xbox cords the following month.
"The fire, resulting from the breaches of warranty and caused by defects of the Microsoft product, consumed the residence of the plaintiffs", the couple said.
