Xbox 360 to be in short supply

I can't imagine that this is going to be a huge surprise to anyone, but Microsoft's eagerly-anticipated Xbox 360 video game console will be in extremely short supply through the holidays. Set for a November 22 global launch, Xbox 360 will likely be disappointing hopeful owners ... worldwide. "We're going to have some disappointment in terms of what we can provide to retail and ultimately to the consumers this year," said Microsoft corporate VP J Allard this week. "We're going to take a little bit of heat on allocations, frankly, in all the territories." It's only a matter of time before people start camping out in front of local CompUSA and Best Buy stores.
