Microsoft has put barriers up to prevent people from promoting competing OS on their Xbox Live accounts. When ever users try to create handles with the name Linux or Unix, they are met with Your motto contains inappropriate language. Please try again.”
I find this rather humorous because there have been other more inappropriate things to show up on Xbox Live that has gone unnoticed. I think they need to be more concerned about more important things than someone with a handle of 'Unix boy' or 'Linux Larry'.

It's not just Linux, you can't use microsoft or any of their properties
"you can't use microsoft or any of their properties"
Yeah, because they don't want you creating a handle like "Microsoft sucks" or "Windows blows".
It's still not cool.
Can I create one that says XBOXizWindozeHAXX0R'd?
I likes me a good challenge like this. LOL
