Much more delicious is the long, angry analysis from Roger on how MSFT was stuffing the channel with Xbox 360s in order to make their numbers look better. Here's the bitter summation that makes me smile:
There is something seriously, institutionally wrong with Microsoft. This is not the company I knew in the late 1990s. Get back to basics, boys. Because accounting tricks neither fool Mr. Market nor your customers forever.
Yes, I know it. Microsoft Schadenfreude is the Advil of my blogging...
