In Response To: Xbox demo units crashing... (Pico)
A Microsoft representative has responded to yesterday's FiXbox story. Here's the official company line on in-store Xbox units.
"With over 10,000 playable Xbox kiosks at retail over a month before launch, there are bound to be a few issues that crop up. Microsoft representatives are currently following up with retailers across the country to insure proper functionality of kiosks. Overall, the displays are working great and we are on track to achieve our goal of having 100% of the Xbox interactive displays working correctly and demonstrating the Xbox difference."
GA continues to receive email from readers on the status of in-store Xbox kiosks. We'll keep you updated.
So, about 10,000 units, and what, 10 are reported broken? Oh boo hoo, that doesnt mean they are delaying the Nov15 release date. Maybe the stores just never turned off the displays, and have been running since last Tuesday. That would do it..
