lol

OT: Thats why I want to get a Wii or DS to keep me occupied if I do encounter the RRoD. I have the Elite though and its manufactured in September of this year. I have the Zepher board, but they are more reliable than the launch motherboards.

@saith17

Do you own a launch 360 or a 2007 manufactered 360?

I think it's all about timing. It is the holiday season.
My 360 broke and got a new one in less than 2 weeks.

 shouldnt be more advanced or hard to repair then a PC. To troubleshoot and repair a PC should take less then 4 days including getting the parts and 2 - 4 hours to install and get everything running again. Microsoft should have all ther parts available on site. Shouldn't take that long to fix what you have custom erros out of the lights ini the front to diagnose. 

It's taking forever because MS has a huge backlog of busted systems. On the plus side Super Mario Galaxy is out for the Wii.

that sucks, i feel your pain though. 30 days is a long time. since u have a wii there are plenty of games that can distract u for that long. (super mario galaxy, Zelda, Trauma center)

yeah I might get a WII just for that SMG.... I just have a problem with the WII i'll need to clean my room often or at least not let my cloth all over the place if I want to play it with out risking injuries lol....

then 30 days to fix a console if it's shipping included.... right now it doesn't sound that long.... especially since it's not a RRoD problem and I think those are prioritised over other problem... at least at some repair center it's like that...

question if it's not a RRoD do they bill you and if yes how much ???

Emmm what are you going to do? maybe do something else, gaming is not the only things you could do, and anyway you have your wii also O_O, could this mean that microsoft has a lot more consoles to fix then the wii :O
