I came back home after work, connected my XBOX to the internet and went into the XBOX-Live menu configuration. Well what happened. The XBOX started automaticly downloading the new crappy XBOX-Live dashboard, which is of course fixed. This is IMHO an act of computer sabotage. I have never allowed MS to modify my dashboard or to auto update my dashboard. Is any lawyer on the list who can point me to the right paragraphs? I do not believe this computer sabotage is legal in any european country.Read the End User Liscence Agreement that you agreed to with the X-box (its probably somewhere in the box).
In some european countries EULAs are not valid if the are 'in the box', ie if you could not agree/review them before the purchase. You if you buy the box, but the license is in the box, it has no legal standing in for instance Holland.
