Who or what is 'Vole'? =P

Wow! A really silly article. I really laughed. :)

FORGET IT!!

Given they seem to miss entirely that despite their view Wii is selling better in Europe and US than HD consoles combined I think I'll take any of their views with a pinch of salt... actually thinking about it I think I'll just disregard them entirely as they seem full of something noxious.

It seems to be a satiric piece targeted at the drivel Brucy 'Everwrong' Everiss

posted earlier.

Fun to read imho, and completely over the top

Brucys garbage: http://seekingalpha.com/article/94362-why-microsoft-s-xbox-360-will-outsell-nintendo-s-wii

It appears to be a term used from M$ by Inquirer.

And a quick Google search gave this kind of ethymology for the word:

Perhaps the most compelling reason was given by a user on The
Inquirer's Message board who said:

"Well, a Vole is a small rodent whose teeth grow continuously.
Therefore they must eat (and wear their teeth down) continously or
their own growth would kill them. In otherwords, Microsoft can only
survive by acquiring/stifling the competition."

Dumbest article I have read in a really long time. Every part with WTF is pure bullshit. I'd probably be a little instuled if I was Japanese and read this.

Knock it off. Everytime someone baits Starcraft and then complains when he shows up and tries to defend himself. This will be your only warning.

It'll be interesting to see what all these analysts have to say in two weeks, when sales have crashed and burned back to pre-pricecut levels.
