In case you missed it - the new SWTOR trailer

As awesome as this trailer looks, it leaves me wishing this was going to be a series or movie like they did with Clone Wars.  I'm just not into MMO.  Nevertheless, this is sick!

Smooth return, 60 gigs, and cash back!

Happy to report Costco came through again with no questions or any headache.  My last return was in April of 2007.  They didn't say a word, just another flawless return and they gave me back the credit and picked up the next one, the fourth one, LOL.

Was hoping to see the "jasper" units but I had my doubts when I saw the bundle.  It's not a jasper, but with their return policy I'm over it now, I've got this whole process down and if it happens again I've got everything ready to roll.  I have all the extra cords and gear for whenever I take the xbox on the road so I don't have to unplug everything from the entertainment center so it worked out great as I just put those cables in the box, unplugged the 360 and off I went.

Decided I wasn't too concerned with my gamesaves and instead of keeping my hard drive I swapped the whole thing this time to get the bigger one.  New unit came with the 60gig, hdmi, 2 games, and the bundle was over $100 cheaper than last time so I got cash back!  I logged onto xbox.com, use the license transfer tool and all my achievements and downloads were back in their spot in my queue for my new box.

The extra money went right into my son's birthday gift - a DSi.  Bought it at Costco too.  Great ending to a frustrating situation.

Happy Memorial Day all!

4th box a charm?!? Time to go back to Costco...

Unbelievable! Yet another hardware failure. This time no RROD, but an E74.  I will be replacing with my 4th xbox!!

I noticed the video was not looking right lately - I switched the cables and tried a few other steps but no luck. Costco has been great so far and the returns and re-buys have been a breeze. They even let me swap out my hard drive. This is beyond epic fail. Good grief!

Keeping fingers crossed for another smooth return!

Here's a couple of examples - first one is slightly disturbing, LOL.
