Dear Microsoft

Today I come across this item

http://videogames.yahoo.com/feature/microsoft-offers-reward-for-missing-xbox-gamer/1260470

and all I could think was "damage control"

We are a game cube/box/wii free zone here and for a simple reason. One look at the vacant stares of my kids when they played at friends houses and the resulting "attitude" was enough to ban it from our home permanently.

It's like crack. only legal. and everyone does it. which makes it ten time worse.

I am sure there are many children who can pick it up and put it down.

Mine don't fall into that category, especially not my oldest.

So thanks but no thanks Microsoft. I may have to buy your crappy Vista platform for home use because it's the industry standard and I need to link up at work.

But you can keep your cube.

Oh...and say hi to the Borg for me.
