That's right....For many of you who have experienced this tragic event, what was your first thoughts, and what did you do for a new one?

My first thought was to break it to releive all stress/anger...What did I do? I returned it to Microsoft and 4 weeks later got a brand new system!

I acciedentily left a Memory Card in the system.(I don't have a hard drive)
So when they gave me a new system, the card wasn't their.

My original xbox360 was one of the first made, just about everything went wrong with it. It killed my disks, it froze up, the disk tray stopped coming out, it wouldn't play xbox360 games, and, yes, it got the red ring of death a good many times. I spent a couple hours of time with tech support trying to get it replaced, but they just kept running me over all the crap it says to do online. I finally sold it for $80 and got a refurb at about $130 with other things I sold. The new one hasn't had any problems so far.

Well depending on how much you play, how good you take care of it....that can affect your system.
