    Pop off the hard drive and the face plate, they send you a box, ship it and a few weeks later, you have a rebuilt one
    Carbon is not the problem, it makes up 0.041% of our atmosphere , 95% of that is from Volcanos and decomposing plants and stuff. So people in the US are responsible for 13% of the carbon in the atmosphere which 95% is not from Humans, like cars and trucks and stuff and they want to spend trillions to fix it while Solar Panel plants are powered by coal plants
    think about that

      Not going to read through the whole thread to see if someone has suggested this already, but if they haven't check out Craigslist. Two of my buddies got red ringed for the second time (Microsoft only warranties the first) and they found a local guy who repaired them for $50. Hope you get it fixed! I have been lucky thus far and not received the red rings of death.

          360 for the win simply because of Halo ;)
          But seriously this local guy fixed it in under 6 hours for $50. Better than waiting weeks for Microsoft to warranty it.

            Might just buy a new one instead of hassling with replacement huh?

            I cannot spend 2 weeks on phone with annoying tech people - I have enough annoying tech people in my staff to have to deal with others! LOL

                I got mine back within 13 days from the time I requested a box until I got it back. This was about 6 weeks ago. The also gave me a 1 year warranty on everything and 30 days XBOX Live Gold. I saved the box in case I have to send it in again I won't have to wait 3-4 days for the box.

                    My son's 10 day old Elite went RoD. Called the local BestBuy and they had a new one waiting at customer service for us. Brought in just the console itself.. no HD, cables, etc. They pulled the new console out of the box and swapped.

                    What's good.. the warranty stays... if it does it again with the new box... same swap.
                    buying a warrenty service isn't smart. wasted money. The RROD or 3 red lights is covered under a 3 year warranty. the amount of oney you'd spend on the warenty over 3 years you could buy you a brand new XBOX.
