Re: Sweet
said by Matt  :said by dks7 :I got an xbox360 experience for you, how about one that doesn't 3 rings of death on you eventually, I am currently on my 6th machine, when this dies I am done. And will never buy Microsoft again. After 6 of them, I'd start suspecting the user rather than the hardware. Its possible but those things are notorious for dying. I rarely use mine and I'm on my 3rd one. It's kept in a clean environment and is never moved. Just go to fire the thing up and dead. MS threw quality control out the window (no pun intended) just to shove the thing out the door as fast as possible. |

| I have an ORIGINAL first month XBox 360 that is still going strong. I actually just moved it downstairs due to winning a new one with HDMI on it.
Never seen a ring o' death.
Perhaps I'm just unique. I keep it with the other electronics... I have it on a surge protector... I kepe things away from the air holes.... |

Maybe that has helped, but if you read what MS recommends, they tell you to plug direct to the wall (no surge protector). In any case, you are very lucky (and I hope it continues).  |

I have bought 3, my son has one and I am on my second one but on this one I have no issues at all and I play it every day. Out of my friends I think 2 had issues but thats it. When I had to return mine I called, next day I had a box delivered to my door with a prepaid label on it and within 10 days of my call I had a new one. For my needs I am very happy and I love all the online features. |

I'm buying my little brother's OG (Original Gangsta) 360 from him. He's had it for a good while, no issues. |
