RROD was exposed in mid 2007. Thats a year and a half. Sales still continued. People preferred it over PS3.

And by "current" I think he means 2012 current. Like modern current.

2008 was when the 360 got a drastic motherboard redesign that effectively ended huge fail rates. you know that.

and exposed means little. media and promotion is everything in the US market

It was widely reported in the media. Its called free press. But 2007 was considered by many to be 360s golden year. People just thought it was justified to get the games, even if their console was at risk, over a PS3. And I think its that scenerio that freaks you out...that gamers legitimately wanted a 360 over PS3 knowing its faults.
