Microsoft Quadruples Xbox 360 Warranty
Microsoft announced that it was extending the warranty on Xbox 360 from 90 days to a year in the US and Canada.
Microsoft has acknowledged that a glitch in the Xbox's online update system damaged a small number of customers' consoles before the problem was quickly fixed.
Customers who already have paid repair bills on Xbox consoles they have owned for less than one year will automatically get refunds, Microsoft said.
The longer warranty period was in effect immediately. The extension will apply to new buyers and people who already own Xbox 360 consoles, which debuted in late 2005, according to Microsoft.
