Why are you leaping from <the information above> to Microsoft pulling out ? Nothing you posted is news, we all know all of those things.…

If you trust Microsoft enough to buy and use the XBox that they control, why would you not trust them with your ID ?! You're using their…

What a strange post. I'm sorry, but if you're going to join the debate then at least do some basic reading so you understand the main…

Luckily in Australia, this is the *retailer's* problem. It's *Amazon* that need to provide your warranty, not Seagate.
