It is worth mentioning that the newer models most certainly seemed to have improved the failure rate and significantly so, no doubt about that.
But I strongly disagree that this issue shouldn't be beaten into the heads of every potential consumer. MS made the choice to skimp on cooling and apparently to skimp on QA..so they should pay the price and yes that price includes more than the $1.1B they put up to fix all of these problems..it also includes a legend that simply will not die..and when failure rates are this high..they earned it.
Does it mean people shouldn't buy a 360? Of course not, thats just ignoring reality.
