@CrazzyMan:

Calling a console "cheap chinese trash" is not only wrong on so many counts, but throwing blanket statements about a country and its people shows your insensitivity towards others, your ethnic bias and your racial prejudice.

Frankly, it's offensive and deplorable. You also realize that many console components offered by all three consoles have parts (e.g. controllers) made in China/Taiwan, or are outright assembled in China/Taiwan as well?

Surely you are not suggesting that the Wii Nunchuk made in China is rubbish or the Sony LCD that was OEM'd to a company in Dongguan is rubbish?

Companies have something called QA processes to ensure that the products are made to meet or surpass the quality expectations of said company. The Xbox 360 is also made in other countries (e.g. Malaysia and Mexico) as well so if the 360 suffers the red ring of death, it's not only limited to the consoles manufactured in China, which only means one thing:

The Xbox 360 has a design flaw. And you know what? That's not the fault of the China factory, as they are only following specs. It is in fact Microsoft's fault and I guess we all know where the Xbox 360's design originates from.

So... are you going to say that the Xbox360's red ring of death problem is in fact the result of poor American design? (Somehow I think not.) And no, I am not Chinese, but blanket statements like the one you made are just wrong and offensive.

Edit: Oh, and just in case nobody has done so yet, welcome to the forum, Dolla Dolla!
