I have two routers at home, and would actually PREFER a wired connection. Is there an ethernet jack built in? I was using Wi Fi before, but would prefer not to if possible.

Yes to both: (1) it has a built in ethernet jack and (2) wireless has no business in gaming.

Just a warning, but according to a warranty service 360 failure rates are still at a whopping 16.4%.

That only counts units that bought their warranty and did not return their units to Microsoft. The documentation included with the Xbox 360 includes statements that say you should *always* call MS first if you have a failure and they also include pages that say just that in giant letters.

It was also a short study, suggesting the failure rate they described would be a huge undershooting.

Bodhesatva most likely knows that the 360 has a high failure rate but would like one nonetheless. I bought one despite being completely aware of the failure rate, and after having observed many failures of Falcon units at the SA forums thread about broked 360s.

Bod: what's your gamertag. I'd add you as a friend. I prefer playing games with rational people rather than the normal Xbox Live population.  PM me if you prefer.

Congrats on the new job!
