I blame hippies for making electronic companies remove lead from their products.
Id rather pay a disposal fee $25-50 for consoles/laptops/PC then have to replace it every 3 years.
Im getting worried I cleaned out my ps3 (60 gig) and put new Thermal paste on it but it did something funny the other day when playing BF1943.. made a loud beep and the fans went to Max for about 1 second then it just sat there, I couldnt even reboot it with the power button.
