Hello, ive bought my 360 this month, and its been great, had it for almost a month now. A week ago, i turned on my 360 as normal, and it turned on, but the picture was really weird... there was a black bar at the bottom, and the image was sort of distorted (bent) to the right. It loaded everything fine, so then i turned it off, checked the cables, pushed thim in to make sure they werent loose, and turned it on again, and the problem was gone as fast as it came. Havent had a problem since. Still, should i be worried? I admit with all this stuff about RROD going on, i may be a bit paranoid. Im using the new falcon 360 on a normal SDTV with composite cables.

Nah, you should be good to go, chances are it was just a loose video cable distorting your picture

^ Like Odin said. Loose cable. I'd put money that it was the video plug that wasn't hooked in right. Because if it was the audio it would be affecting the sound, whereas, since it was the video cable, it affected the picture by having the bar sweep across the bottum of the screen. Nothing to worry about homeboi.
