I didn't say redesign, I said up the specs, as in make it a technologically more advanced console than previous models. If they wouldn't face any lawsuits for that, I wouldn't have said what I said. Hell, just look at Sony, they faced lawsuits for removing the Other OS. Microsoft would certainly face the same issue if people felt they got/have a lesser product than the next 360 owner.

Whether or not that's actually a legal issue is another matter, so I may have worded my original post wrong. Hopefully now, you understand.

OK, I see what you mean.

I don't see any issues, because Nintendo did it with the DSi (improved the CPU speed, added RAM, added a camera) and there weren't any lawsuits.

Removing the Other OS was a problem because it was an advertised feature and people had already bought the product in part due to that. But adding features to later models, though not neccessarily a good idea for business, surely can't be illegal. People who bought the older Xboxes (and in my example DSs) got exactly what was advertised and what they paid for.
