puddingebola writes Microsoft has announced it will no longer manufacture Kinect for Windows. Only the Xbox One version will be available for purchase. Microsoft said it could not meet demand for the device, a strange claim for a company to make. The console version, though, will still work with Windows by way of a USB adapter, and as pointed out by this similar story at Gamespot, for about the same total price.http://a.fsdn.com/sd/twitter_icon_large.png (http://twitter.com/home?status=Kinect+For+Windows+Is+Dead%3B+Long+Liv e+Kinect+For+Windows+Via+USB+%3A+http%3A%2F%2Fbit. ly%2F1JbtMau)http://a.fsdn.com/sd/facebook_icon_large.png (http://www.facebook.com/sharer.php?u=http%3A%2F%2Fhardware.slashdot.org%2F story%2F15%2F04%2F05%2F1851227%2Fkinect-for-windows-is-dead-long-live-kinect-for-windows-via-usb%3Futm_source%3Dslashdot%26utm_medium%3Dfaceboo k)http://www.gstatic.com/images/icons/gplus-16.png (http://plus.google.com/share?url=http://hardware.slashdot.org/story/15/04/05/1851227/kinect-for-windows-is-dead-long-live-kinect-for-windows-via-usb?utm_source=slashdot&utm_medium=googleplus)
