Microsoft blames Surge/UPS for 360 Problems?

Fellow "Ninja" site loot-ninja.com has found that official Microsoft tech support is now blaming "extra surge protection" as a cause of problems in 360's. They suggest that 360's should be plugged directly into the wall as the 360's power-brick is already a surge protector (which it is).

Ridiculous. Middle-fingers off to Microsoft on that one. As loot-ninja says, there is absolutely no reason that a UPS/Surge protector should cause a problem.

Don't turn into Sony Microsoft...you are REALLY close (middle-finger off to DRE).
