"My 360 got the RROD today and I'm glad."

Now that's what Microsoft likes to hear.

Really, the title of this thread sounds like a joke. Or brainwashing. You, as a consumer are glad that a device you bought for your own hard-earned money broke so you can get a replacement. Microsoft sold you a badly designed/shoddily built device that broke prematurely. It broke and now have to send it in and will be deprived of it for a while. Please take a step back and try to see the absurdity.

Shouldn't the normal reaction be anger at Microsoft for selling you such a device in the first place as opposed to happiness about them fixing their own mistake for free?

Our customers are very important to us." -Larry "Major Nelson" Hryb (10/2013). Note: RRoD was fixed with the Jasper-revision 3 years after the launch of 360
