Change the law or we'll stop selling

Sydney Morning Herald reports that Microsoft 'could' be stopping the sales of Xboxs in Australia.

"Microsoft would be forced to reconsider selling the Xbox video game system in Australia, or seek changes to the law, following the acquittal in July of a Sydney man alleged to have sold chips that modify a Sony PlayStation 2 to play imported games, Microsoft chief executive Steve Ballmer said yesterday."

Of course, it might all be a plot for us to buy what's left now, just in case. ;) Read the article here. Slashdot also has it covered.

    Not that it really matters, they probably think we're that country just north of Germany anyway.
