Re: "the soldiers are pissed at Microsoft"

In Response To: Re: Conventional Warfare & Xbox One (Captain Spark)

: I worked with a fella that served on a sub. You're in an iron cigar tube with
: very little room to move around and precious little entertainment or the
: room to experience that entertainment. It give a whole new meaning to
: cabin-fever! I can fully understand why the soldiers are pissed at
: Microsoft, and I agree with them.

Are they, really?
Or did I miss some article where the armed forces have actually expressed their great discontent about MS's plans for Xbox One?
So far all I've seen are non-troop gaming communities using the armed forces as a reason to rant about the issue.

If there is evidence that either MS knows about the issue directly and is purposefully ignoring it (that is, they have explained that there is no solution in hand for the troops), or first hand word from the armed forces that troops feel betrayed by Microsoft, please share...

(really, I would like to know, because right now, technically speaking, I really have only seen indirect use of that context as general upset-gamer examples of why the online issue is awful; non-troops speaking for the troops. I honestly would be surprised if MS had zero recognition of and/or no solution for the armed forces)
