No, it really wouldn't help in this thread either.

Personally I do not know what you people expected the person from MS to say.  If you have ever worked support, you know when you tell a customer no, it really does not matter what you say after that.  What esle was the person going to say, Oh sir since you ask, you can do what you want.  Silly crap like this cracks me up as people try to blow things out of the water.  For support you stick to the company policy because if you do not, they you in up getting fired because you decided to be the nice guy and your conversation get post all over the net.  Stick with the script and its the company policy that takes a hit, not your job.

Well it would give your argument some momentum.

It would certainly give a argument momentum, I'm done with shit flamebait threads like this.

the only place this thing will sell is in the US....

Agree. BTW if the connection between the user and the closest MS server farm isn't fast enough and/or the ping is too high, 24h check can still work, but other features like the cloud can't work at their best, if they can work at all, maybe MS should simply state the truth more clearly, users from places not supported would still be disappointed but they wouldn't feel fooled and they'd be less angry.

Edit: ooops, checked the other thread, actually MS tells the truth, and the truth is quite frank and brutal, maybe the support team even gave that user too much hope just stating that "it may not work".

Person asks stupid question and gets answer. How is this thread worthy?
