Microsoft Corp. (MSFT) has denied it is artificially creating a shortage in the U.S. of its Xbox 360 video game consoles, which it will begin selling Tuesday, The New York Times reported Monday. Microsoft has said that within 90 days, it expects to ship 2.75 million to 3 million of the highly anticipated consoles worldwide. According to The Times, Wall Street analysts expect a shortage in the U.S., with some saying Microsoft has purposely stoked demand beyond the company's ability to meet it. | ||

| Call it what you want, but MS is limiting the availability of their supply, they are rationing it to maintain steady shipments. I'm sure either way, people will be buying empty boxes on ebay. |

"MS is limiting the availability"
On a related note, "Toyota is limiting the availability" of the Camry vehicle. I mean, they COULD add another car line and produce them faster, I guess. "they are rationing it to maintain steady shipments" Welcome to manufacturing 101. What company doesn't do this, beyond the obvious sony ps2 bullshit? Fellas, there are enough REAL conspiracies out there. Dont feel compelled to invent one for every single situation. This post was edited by mooresa56 on Tuesday, November 22, 2005 at 12:44. |
