Microsoft fires game test contractor who talked to VentureBeat
>> From venturebeat.com:
[QUOTE]
Robert Delaware was the only named Microsoft worker (a contract employee) who talked -- without permission -- to VentureBeat for our story last week on the Xbox 360 defects.

Microsoft had him fired on Wednesday. Delaware worked as a game tester at Microsoft but was employed by the temp agency Excell Data. He reported directly to a Microsoft manager, who told him he was being let go because of the VentureBeat article.

Delaware, a 29-year-old Seattle resident, expects to face civil charges from his former employer VMC (which tests games for Microsoft) and Microsoft as well. He will likely have to hire a lawyer. Microsoft spokesman David Dennis said the company does not talk about personnel issues.

"I don't regret it," he said in a phone call on Thursday. "I'll fight it. If they want to come after me, bring it on."
