This claim will never be held up in court. They're wasting their time.

America. Where you can sue because you spilled coffee and burned yourself. But honestly, did their lawyer even READ this? #16 & #17

Just sad... [-X

At most, they should have sued for like $5, which is all that a full month of problems would have been worth (and the problems only started with Christmas).

And like Dan pointed out, you agree when you sign up to accept XBL "as is", "with all faults", etc...

very true.

some american firm sued my music tech teacher for making a newsletter (for my college) called "wired".

luckily the only thing he had to do to get away with a real bollocking was to give them the url.

great find!

people sue over the stupidest things! it seems they sue companies because of their lack of common sense. i mean really, coffee is hot, dont spill it on yourself. if lots of people are on a server, its going to crash. and the guy who sued Marlboro over getting lung cancer, it says so on the friggin' surgeon general's warning that it could happen!

...people these days

Looks like they didn't. I just recently took a Constitutional Law class in high school, and my teacher is a lawyer. I really can't wait to show him this, because he's one of those people that FLIP over things like this. I think that the lawyer should get penalized for stealing that person's money. He knows he won't win, or lets hope he knows he won't win. As it clearly says on Xbox's legal document, they are not responsible for downtime, it is an as-is service.

Another waste of time and money in my opinion

OF COURSE the attorney knows they won't win. But he is a lawyer, so of course he is going to take the time to do this XD He won't get penalized, I don't see why you think he would. The morons are paying him for his legal knowledge and services, and that is his job.

I was hoping I could be the one to post the Ctrl+Alt+Del comic

Anyway, yeah, this just shows the sue happy America these days, all people want is $$$ without using their ****ing brains. Common sense is not part of a few people's personalities anymore.

The lawyer is smart, because he gets payed nevertheless. Judging by the lawsuit, these people are idiots, so this lawyer can rake in a ton of money of them...
