I think RROD is/was a forum phenomenon. Things which sound big online aren't always big in real life, aka the Ron Paul effect. Besides the solder was the reason behind RROD and it effected all nVidia mobile chips at the time, PS3s, Macbooks etc so it wasn't limited to just Microsoft. If it were really a big problem then they would offer a two year warranty right off the bat, I.E. if the general population actually cared.
Tease.
