Well from what I have been hearing the problems people have had with their 360's have finally slowed down. Especially if your going out and buying the system now. It's nice to hear that Microsoft has finally cleared the bugs the machine has been having. :)

No but I know that Squirrels fly :D

And that is factual information just in case you didn't know.

Take for example the Xbox Elite same system but newer improvements. If there were any bugs I'm sure they have addresed them for that system.

actually, they didn't. They did the exact same thing that alot of other people have been doing to ghetto-rig their 360's to work. They didn't fix the root problem. They just tried to cover it up better

What is the main bug with these things? I hear that the GPU is melting right off the board. One thing i do know is that there slow as hell fixing them. The lady on the phone told me once it got there if they can't fix it in 48 hours they send you a new one. Well its been 5 days now.

See I keep hearing about this fancy chip thats coming out with the new Elites in September. I'm hoping whatever that is will solve any problems.

I haven't heard anyone complain about their elite dying on them?

So I assume thats good so far.

yea there isnt enough cooling so the board warps breaking the solder connections. the new 65mm chips that should be going to mainstream production in OCT should help to reduce the failure rate, i said SHOULD so dont hold your breath
