Jasper confirmed and sighted! 843 FDOU is the lucky number.

Do these offer much in an improvement in quality, or is it really just cost cutting for Microsoft?

Cost cutting, probably some reliability but revisions give you a reliability boost generally as a rule. Compare early gen PS2s to mid gen PS2s for your answer there.

How could it be more reliable?

Less heat is a good start, electronics which run cooler generally last longer.

Motherboard/Materials as they tweak areas with the highest % chance of failure.

 

 

 I was only asking becuase people kept going on about this Jasper lark, made it seem like it was something real special.

Falcon was the chocolate cake as far as Xbox reliability is concerned. Jasper is just the icing.

So its not all its cracked up to be, its just another mile marker on the road really.
