Microsoft intentionally designed the xbox 360 to be faulty/defective/fragile for the reason that they would make HUGE profits from repairs.

They dont get money from repairs.

they had a 1 year warrenty, and probably 95% fixed so far have been free.

they're losing money ;)

Was it intentional?  Who knows.  But it seems curious that they would let it go on for so long.  A bad batch or two is reasonable.  But it seems like its gone on for over a year. Its almost ridiculous and they have lost my business and any future business they would have gotten from me.  I also see alot of people going with the other option after their 2nd or 3rd system failure so in the long run it can't be good for customer satisfaction.

I am on my second and going on third.  I sent in a request for the coffin to ship in for repair today. They said I would get my xbox back or a new one not a referb., free shipping there and back, and a new one year warranty. Hopefully this will work. If not XBOX BE DAMNED!
