I just can't see any reason for MS to screw their fans that badly. Really, the last thing they need to do is make Halo 3 fans think they bought a more expensive, lower quality machine. The backlash would be insane for MS. If all they wanted to do was clear out stock so they could make room for the new, cheaper, machine they'd just lower the price to that point.
You do not have the right to never be offended.
