I get redirected back to the MS store website and shown a broken page.
However, when I use a web proxy the page shows up.
I'm trying to figure out what's causing the problem. I've tried multiple browsers with scripting on/off already, and different devices with different AV/OS, so it's probably something lower level (gonna try router next).
I just want to make sure though that everyone else can get to the site fine. Could you please go to the link above and post whether you see a broken page or not? And which country you're in would also be helpful.
I called it last year that they wouldn't end support when they said there would. There are too many people still on Windows 10 waiting for something better to upgrade to and 11 ain't it! The recent promises of fixing Windows 11's many problems is nice, but unless they deliver on those promises in a big way then I expect customers will still want to stick with 10.
Full ACK. I went too far adressing your post specifically. And as you said, it up to us customers as participant of the market dynamic as it happens to decide whether we spend our money on a product or not. The responsibility is to the company.
In case of this price hike one could assume that MS is expecting or even starting to see a new interest in XBox hardware so they want to avoid losses per unit sold. I find it fair enough that they granted a period in which everyone interested could grab a unit for the current price (Amazon.de has a reliable stock of XBox Series X digital, which I bought last December after having sold my day one Series X a year ago). It is not that they cash up their customers starting on Monday.
Cheers and let's cling to our perfectly fine hardware as long as we deem it worthy in relation to purchasing something new!
Not surprising at all. Apple got three months worth of marketing hype with the Macbook Neo's incredible low launch price. They have sowed the idea that the Neo is the best value laptop and that idea will last for years even though the value is no longer there. They do this every five years or so with a single new product that is amazing value which distracts from the rest of their products being horrendously overpriced.
