I had to send back my 360 a couple days ago for a drive failure (not RROD). I didn't even get a coffin - I had to pack it myself (did MS run out?). He recognized the shipping label, though.
The employees had a tally on the wall of how many 360s went through their store for fun. I was apparently the 52nd in 2008 to go there this year. I asked about other consoles and he told me the distant 2nd was the DS because the hinge would break. He said he didn't see any Wiis or PS3s.
On a better note, the number has decreased sharply since last year, where about 2-3 a day would be going through.
"Naturally the common people don't want war: Neither in Russia, nor in England, nor for that matter in Germany. That is understood. But, after all, IT IS THE LEADERS of the country who determine the policy and it is always a simple matter to drag the people along, whether it is a democracy, or a fascist dictatorship, or a parliament, or a communist dictatorship. Voice or no voice, the people can always be brought to the bidding of the leaders. That is easy. All you have to do is TELL THEM THEY ARE BEING ATTACKED, and denounce the peacemakers for lack of patriotism and exposing the country to danger. IT WORKS THE SAME IN ANY COUNTRY." --Hermann Goering, leading Nazi party member, at the Nuremberg War Crime Trials
