New Xbox model failure rate question

Hi All,

I was wondering if the RROD was corrected for the new xbox 360 model. I know that by design the new one dont have rings of light but Im talking about the failure rate of the new hardware.

It is an honest question, I am considering buying one.

Thanks to all

I read that the RROD rate for the newer Xboxes has dramatically decreased. So I'd say it's pretty safe.

They are better then the old ones, but to be honest I do not know a single person that has owned an Xbox 360 that hasn't RROD's at least once, and most people (myself included) have had several go bad.

Make sure you have a warrenty, no matter what version you buy. Microsoft still covers new models, and most retailers (Play n Trade, Gamestop) will give you a 1-2 year no questions asked warrenty on used models for 10-20 dollars.
