It's the lead free solder used in the boards, I'm an electronics student and have extensive soldering experience and i have found that the lead free solder is the worst thing to solder with ever! I would rather get lead poisoning from the old 60/40 lead based solder than this crappy new stuff. And guess what, the lead free solder is what is being used in the 360's and often when you solder with the new stuff you get cold joints which tend to be extremely brittle and have a tendency to break causing circuits to be opened rendering the system nonoperational.
