OH WELL............................

I've done all I know to do and still havd the RROD. I have it in it's coffin..........er I mean box to ship it off to the hospital to get better. I still thank God for the spare but i feel kinda naked, (not a sight to behold, trust me), with just the one. The thing that scares me is if it happens again I'll do something drastic and go PS3. Not that Sony is bad, I just don't want to buy all my games over and downsize in picture quality. We have the extended warranty on both but I've heard thats even a nightmare. Do I buy a refirb as a third spare or just take my chances? I set up the XBOX downstairs so we can both still be online at the same time but it's not the same. My pre-order copy of Prince of Persia didn't come in today as well so I bought Sean White Snowboarding for the PSP. I just hope it's better than the reviews it's gotten so far. I can't help but be bummed. I think I need a cookie and a hug

Don't go Sony, man. I know it sucks, but like you say, you have a spare. It shouldn't take too long to get it back. Mine died last summer, but I haven't had any problems with it since
At least Microsoft is standing behind their product and repairing it.

And what you need is a beer and a slap on the ass... just not from me. Talk to your wife about that one. If not, it looks like the woman in your background would be happy to comply.

Good advice but being diabetic I can't drink. Yes the wife will be happy to provide the slap on the ass as soon as she finds a suitable weapon.

Then make it a root beer, or a non-alcoholic brew.

You know that nondescript white box they send you to mail it back in? (The one designed to prevent theft.) When I walked through the door of the UPS Store, the guy at the counter called across the store to me and said, "That's a 360."

Actually, the replacement for my (then) $300 console went much more smoothly and took much less time than support for my $10 Arcade games has. They've really got their stuff together on this issue, and you really will probably have a replacement in a month at the outside.
