Ballmer can't get an Xbox

Digit LIVE news - Xbox 360 shortages 'to continue': "'He's right, he's a section 16 officer that operates under Sarbanes-Oxley,' said Moore. 'I can't give him one, even if I had one, because he can't accept it and I don't think he pre-ordered it from our local BestBuy, which he lives pretty close to, so Steve is [out of luck] right now.' "

I find it hard to believe that one of the richest guys in the world can't have someone call around to get him an Xbox 360. Sounds like PR-babble to me. Does anyone really believe these shortages are not manufactured? My friend just walked into a Zellers the other day and picked one up.
