I was one of the lucky ones who got a Xenon (first gen) launch console from the USA.. It lasted over 2 and a half years being on 24x7 in 45 degree celcius heat here in Australia no probs.

When it finally died i invest in a new PAL Australian expect (first gen) which was also a dud, It died after 6 months, I Did the X-CLAMP and a few other mods and it fixed it for a short time but then i just gave up.

I'm now using all my old 360s for spare drives, lasrers etc etc.
Might even make some case mods again. The new falcons i must admit kick ass.. monsterboy had his old Xeyphr here and my new falcon was silent! heheh

l8r all, and good topic man!

When I got my x-box it already had the ring of death.

Of course, I got it for free. Guy said all I had to do was send it in and I could have it.

Free x-box, and it came with a 1 month free of Gold XBL. I was happy Smile

RROD on 2 xenon's I just got one of the new jasper consoles. After all I had to go through with M$ hopefully this is the last 360 I have to ever buy again. Funny thing is I have a launch Xbox 1 that still works to this very day.

I cant argue with that Dart I think they were in such a hurry to beat sony and nintendo to the market they didnt properly test the 360 to make sure it would last
