Yeah, true, but this kind of begs a question: Why would MS want to hide something the general gaming public knows is there and is something that has gotten mainstream press coverage since the system came out and people are STILL having problems with or are using it as a reason to hesitate from buying a 360 (it's still one of my main reasons I'm a little squeamish about buying one).

I know it may not be like that and they may not intend to hide anything, but this just gives people that impression that they DO have something to hide (or at least they are thinking that sweeping the issue under the rug of fuck over anyone in your company that brings it up will make it go away).

Makes you wonder WHY they're telling their employees not to say anything about it. We all KNOW the hardware failures exists and are widespread, so it's not like they anyone can say "but is what he said true?".
