I remember back when I had my original xbox about 4 years ago it would start smoking in the back where the power cable connected, shortly afterwards a story of how an xbox caught fire hit the media and MS started shipping out those new Power cables with the little buttons on them that did absolutly nothing to fix the problem since it wasnt the cable, and btw my xbox still smoked even with that new cable... anyway now we've got the 360 and every new model/chip in the 360 promises to be more reliable and all that crap but the issue is not the chip but the design that causes the 360 to overheat itself to death, i'm really frustrated about this.... and for anyone saying " oh the rrod % has gone down" thats not the case at all based on my personal accounts and 2 of my friends who both got the rrod off of new xbox's they recieved last christmas.. it's an epidemic.

 

Trolling? maybe

 

And do you have a link supporting your "facts"about the original XBOX smoking cause mine never did that...

 I am willing to bet his didn't smoke either. When something is smoking it means there is a part burning. That cannot go on indefinitely. If something was being burned up it would have either a) run out or b) run out and broken the machine. If he saw something coming off his machine in the form of smoke then it must have been a part of the machine, or some kind of crap that got stuck there to improper maintenence.
