Apr 19th 2008 12:31PM Alex, I understand your points but I don't agree with them.
Microsoft has a responsibility to ensure that their products are able to handle a variety of usage situations, proper or improper alike. The most that should ever happen to the power brick if stored improperly should be failure, NEVER FIRE. I can't believe you would even debate this.
Microsoft has a legal responsibility to protect their users from mishaps like this, especially if they're "reasonably foreseeable". Is it reasonably foreseeable that a user may shove this massive power brick behind their cabinet against a wall? Absolutely.
Should you put in a disclaimer telling them not to? Of course! But is it reasonably foreseeable that a user will not read the Xbox 360 manual cover to cover? 99% of users haven't, I guarantee you.

Apr 19th 2008 10:48AM I tend to agree - Microsoft has no excuse for their power bricks to heat up to the extent of setting a house on fire.
No matter how they recommend you store it, it still should never even come close to happening. Especially considering how big it is, not everybody wants it sticking out so they'll do their best to hide it.
