Do you think Microsoft has pissed off the industry like how Sega did with the Saturn?

Sega never did anything wrong to the industry. They are and remain Saints compared to Microsoft and the Xbox. I would exchange MS for Sega in a heartbeat. 

Um, didn't they release a console, then drop it, then release a new one, then drop that one, then release yet another...all w/in like 5 years?

I can tell you that I would stay a Sega fan after that /sarcasm

Yeah I understand. The 32X was a complete fiasco, but then again, it didn't piss anyone in the industry it just hurt their reputation very badly and the ones they pissed were consumers. Sega Saturn actually had great support and wasn't totally scratched for a long while, it's actually the best-selling Sega console in Japan ever and it got a lot of japanese games, it wasn't dropped there even when the Dreamcast released. Saturn saw WAY better support than the N64, everywhere and that's a fact.  The Dreamcast still has a cult following, so I don't think it pissed too many people when they were forced to drop it for financial reasons, it was just an awesome console and in no way it pissed their fans.
