An XBOX 360 is a computer. Very similar to your desktop PC and the PS3.

Microsoft writes the software for it. A hardware failure isn't Microsofts fault.

Software = Written on HD Flash or other memory
Firmware = Flashed onto the Hardware not entirely sure how it works
Hardware = The physical stuff

Usually companies stick to one of those areas.
