Microsoft extends Xbox warranty to a year



Microsoft is extending its warranty on the Xbox 360 video-game console to one year from the previous limit of 90 days.



The change announced Friday applies to future and present owners.



The move matches the one-year warranty Sony and Nintendo offer on their latest consoles, the PlayStation 3 and the Wii.



Microsoft has acknowledged that a glitch in the Xbox's online update system damaged a small number of customers' consoles before the problem was quickly fixed.



At least one customer has sued over the incident.






But Microsoft spokeswoman Molly O'Donnell said the new warranty was not a response to that case or any other repair claims.



Customers who already have paid repair bills on Xbox consoles they've owned for less than one year will automatically get refunds, Microsoft said.
