its simple newer models arent suppose to RROD so instead of going thru all the trouble of waiting (which i hate doing) i will just go out and trade mine in and get a newer model that suppose to work.
200 bucks for no more worries is not that big of a price to pay. you people spend more on food prolly. (i no i do)
i have gone thru M$ and im sick of them sending me 5 (refrubed) xboxes. if the new ones are also defective then im done with M$ as a whole.
