But i'm still going to be watching my Jeff Lol,

I turn it off and on imediatly to find the Godless 3 red lights. I have been trying to contact the Ebay seller just sent my 10th email and got off the phone with no answer for the 3rd time. I'm reluctant to call Microsoft and yell at them and end up paying the 130.00 repair after i spent 340.00 on the console. Am I the only one that believes Microsoft needs to be punished for trying to play the market and selling the next generation console without fulling understanding the consequense of incomplete console? It's like buying a new car and having the wheels fall off as you leave the dealership!

My xbox 360 broke down yesterday, showed the three red lights but my power supply was still green. Removed the hard drive and memory card, replace the hard drive and it works fine at the moment. will update if it happens again, if so i'll send it into microsoft Just heard on the radio Microsoft are now refunding everyone who have paid to get their xbox 360 fixed, and are offering free shipping and repair to all faulty xbox 360’s now as they have put $1 Billion aside to cover expenses.
