SHANGHAI (Reuters) - Microsoft Corp. (MSFT.O: Quote, Profile, Research) expects to chalk up another year of more than 30 percent sales growth in China and plans to sell its new Xbox 360 game console there next year, a senior executive said on Wednesday. The world's top software firm, which engineered a series of strategic acquisitions in the world's seventh-largest economy this year, aims to carve out a bigger slice of a $20 billion software market that has grown almost 40 percent annually between 1999 and 2003.
