Just a day after the big release, Microsoft Corp. is getting complaints of technical problems with the new Xbox 360 videogame console. Can you believe it? Microsoft says there are just a few isolated cases of Xbox 360 owners who complained that their systems crashed while playing games, but if the problem is more widespread Microsoft might end up having a bad holiday season.

Molly O'Donnell, a spokeswoman for Microsoft's Xbox division urges anyone with Xbox problems to call 1-800-4myXbox or go to www.xbox.com. If the problems can't be resolved immediately, Microsoft said it will pay to ship the console overnight to a repair center, overnight it back once it's fixed, or ship a replacement.
