Do the new 360s still RROD?

RRoD is more like 10-15% instead of the inital 30-40%.

Actually with the Falcon revision it was down to 5%.  I can only imagine that with the new Jaspers it is around 1-3% which is the accepted industry standard.

Actually you are partially correct. The original RROD total system failure rate is below 5%, perhaps close to 3% but unfortunately the other problems, E74, one red ring, disk, NXE and NXE audio patch problems keep the Xbox 360 above the industry standard for problems and nowhere near the PS3 and Wii for reliability.

 

Have any actual evidence of that?  A wikipedia article that includes a study of just 1040 consoles is not exactly very legitimate, especially considering they likely used varying ages of Xbox 360s and not the newest hardware changes.  The E74, one red ring, and other issues are very few and far between.  I can almost guarantee that the PS3's blu-ray drive issues affect a larger percent than the E74, one red ring, DVD drive, and other issues the 360 has.  Plus, are you really trying to harm Microsofts image with issues after a major system update?  I mean seriously, isn't it Sony who seems to brick a few thousand PS3's every time they release a minor update?

Find me a study where Jaspers are still failing at a higher rate than 1-3% overall and I'll be swayed.

 

Find my a study that says the 360 is within the standards of its compitition.  Yes M$ has improved RRoD, but they have not eliminated it yet, not to mention the multilply other hardware problems.  They haven't fixed the disc scratching problem either.
