Well then, finally after already admitting that limited chip sets were the main reason for the Xbox 360's shortage, Taiwan's Commercial Times newspaper reported that Microsoft has doubled their chip production. It's about time. Sources say that Microsoft is planning on delivering nearly 3 million 360 consoles in the second quarter of this year. Phew.

Also, Microsoft announced yesterday their plan to launch their newest system to Eastern Europe, the Middle East and South Africa, which would have only added to the slim supply we've got goin' on here.
