Microsoft manned up and took responsibility for their mistakes. It cost them billions of dollars but they extended their warranty so that if you do have issues they will fix it for you. Sony has had issues in the past, but (correct me if Im wrong) they didnt go to the lengths that Microsoft did to fix the problems for consumers who already purchased the prdouct.

I also think that 33 percent is alwfully high. I only know one person whose XBox 360 failed them out of 15 or so of my friends who own one. I do know what excasterbates the problem though, when I worked at Target people would bring back faulty XBox 360s and we were told to just put them back on the selves (we did that with furniture too, and that was even more of a hassle because I had to carry the same garage cabinet in for a customer twice). All Big Box retailers do that though.

I only know one person with a 360 and he's working on his 3rd >_> 33% seems a little bit low to me.

And it's not just mircrosofts console path, their OS is a joke, it is litterally commic relief in the programming world. They dodge way to many corners, notoriously don't play by the rules in terms of monopoly laws, and have a serious issue with quality components. I actually don't know a single person who hasn't had problems with their PC. It's really sad when someone tells you not to buy an OS until it's on it's second service pack -_- PLEASE don't turn this forum into a pissing contest. Both sides have their faults.
