The RROD will never truly go away for what I've read.

M$ knew about this problem even before they started shipping out the XBOX to costumers, and now have have even set aside more than $1 billion just to cater to affected costumers.

To me that looks like typical MS: Patch the problem instead of fixing it for good.

I guess MS is plagued with deaths,
Blue Screen of Death
Red Ring of Death
Next would be something like EOD - Everything of death....

Happened to my during a power failure once, had to ship it to the USA to fix. You know what I did? I bought a new one, f that.

We got our 360 fixed by a third party in less than a week for about $80 including shipping. Totally worth it NOT to go to MicroSoft.

lol from what I'm reading and watching on the news blu-ray is heading the way of other Sony 'innovations' so I'd rather wait for the next console....
