X-Box Co-Creator Leaves M$ -- 12:48 pm CST, Update by A.T. Hun

Yahoo is reporting that Seamus Blackley, the co-creator of the X-Box gaming console, has resigned from Microsoft to "pursue other opportunities." Here's a snip:
The news comes just days after Microsoft said it would miss its fiscal year-end sales target for the Xbox by as much as 40 percent, a shortfall it blamed on weak sales. Those weak sales led to deep price cut in Europe and Australia last week.
You mean they didn't sell as many X-Boxes as expected because sales were weak? You don't say! :) Thanks Evil Avatar.
