    I bought my 360 in December of 2006 for myself out of Christmas money. I haven't had a single problem with it since. However, I'm usually weary my 360 may get the RROD any day now. :pac:

    Hi, I got mine June 2006 and just sent it back to Microsoft Yesterday for the second time with the RROD. First time was December 2007.

    I think it must have only been a few days left in warranty !!!!

    Mine lasted almost 2.5 years before I got the RROD but hey, it happened eventually so you better hope you get one while you're still within the 3 year warranty, otherwise you'll be out of luck (or maybe there are mythical launch day units out there that never get the RROD :))...

    I now have 2 xboxes with RRODs on them. One was fixed by MS already. It's so so infuriating. I love the console but I've lost faith. I'm too broke to buy a ps3 so i'm gonna drop it to the place in bray now

    my 2 cents: If it is still under warranty send it back to M$, you might get new mobo, rather than fixed one.

    Never had a problem. I've had 2 360's though. Traded in an old 20gb premium for a 60gb, minor problems with the 20gb but nothing fatal (disc drive getting stuck sometimes)

    I hope my 360 goes kaput again before my 3 years are up (December). 3 trips to Germany so far, but it could do with a fourth... :D

    You probably are jinxing it by posting this thread!
