No 360, past, present, and future, will be RROD proof.

from what I've read online, they don't get the RRoD. However, they get the "new form" of the RROD which is the E74 error. I don't have first hand experience to tell you though.

I had 4 RROD in a row & then I was finally assured by MS it would not happen again & it hasn't. I still hear of people having troubles, but neither myself nor my local 360 gaming friends have had problems for awhile.

The first console I bought got the Red Ring. But that was last year and I bought the console only a few months after the initial launch so I knew I'd probably get it. It lasted two years beforing Red Ringing. No problems yet, thankfully.

no not really the falcon and jasper chips are straight but if you still have the first chipset its only a matter of time if it hasn't broken yet b ut they dont sell those anymore only the newer ones.

eBay has plenty of RROD Jasper Xbox 360's for sale to those that think they can fix them.

If it can't be manufactured not to break, how can it be fixed to remain unbroken?

Sorry...

The new ones are definitely more resilient to RROD's than previous 360's, but it is still a strong possibility if you play a lot.

I had a 360 that got RROD earlier this year, we got it repaired, but out of fear of getting a second RROD, we bought a 360 arcade. Not to say that im out of the woods, but sometimes the disk drive makes a funny noise and after hearing about E74 im scared.
