File under: no surprise there then. However, it wasn't that fact that a Microsoft man was slagging off the Sony PS3 just before Xmas that caught my attention, but the irony of what was being said.

This is the story that just will not go away. Microsoft has been sued for violation of consumer protection laws for continuing to sell the Xbox 360 despite being aware the hardware is (allegedly) likely to suffer the Red Rings of Death and fail.
