I dont understand why things like that never happen to me. Honestly no electronic device I bought broke in a way that I couldnt use it anymore. Ofcourse sometimes some buttons or the housing of the devices are due to heavy use optically damaged.
Not one single Item I bought myself no matter how old it is isnt working anymore. Exeption are one GC Controller which I destroyed because it steered automatically in one direction.
All my consoles are working even my 20 year old GameBoy. If I buy something I dont even think about the possibiliy it could break. Because i expect it will work always and for decades like my tiny TV for 70 Euro cheapest china TV on the market. Its a CRT from a super market. It was running 24/7 for atleast 4 years and it still runs a lot. And it never failed it works like a charm. Like my 18 year old CD player. Also I have several notebooks from the early nintys until now. And all of them work like on day one. And I am not careful with my stuff.
I will buy a 360 soon. I wanted the Slim model. But maybe I have to buy the old one and put it into a bad ventilated shelf just to see if it really breaks on me.
Things like that happen it seems but not to me.
