So has anyone got a link or some sort of proof of Microsoft saying there are shortages post holiday?  Or is this all based off the steam of the "Wii beat 360 in the holidays because of shortages" banter that started last month?

I'm surprised at you! You're a mod and don't you get some subtleties yet?      MS never directly attacks Wii, particularly for Xmas, it knows it would risk to be met with ridicule, at most it lets its subtlest astroturfers downplay it. Excuses were mostly defensive against Sony, for having beaten PS3, but not buried it, despite the stellar Kinect launch (that followed a stellar 360 itself relaunch, BTW). Even now that MS got more ambitious and is attacking Ninty itself, Sony possibly coming back to its full glory and grabbing a big slice of home theatre computing market remains its recurring nightmare.
