A few weeks back, at the beginning of June, I got the red ring of death. Few days later, called the support line, gave them the info, tried to troubleshoot. Nothing worked. So, then the guy tells me my Box is LITERALLY just two weeks out of warranty, and that I'll have to pay $140 to have it repaired.
WHAT?!?!
Come on, man, I already forked over hundreds of dollars, why can't Microsoft manufacture something that WORKS?! That's not to say they're the only ones who manufacture stuff that breaks, but if my PS3 breaks or my Wii breaks down, I'm not paying another $140 to have it fixed! It's effin BS! Absolutely absurd. I paid good money for something, expecting it to work. Microsoft has BALLS asking for the repair fee.
In fact, I'm so pissed off over this, that I challenge J Allard and Bill Gates to fisticuffs, and if I win, I get my $140 back. That's allI want. I feel it's absolutely unfair to charge kids money to repair something that Microsoft FAILED TO MANUFACTURE CORRECTLY IN THE FIRST PLACE!!!
So, there it is. There's the challenge. Anytime they wanna throw down, I'll be ready.
As a side note, I think I'm getting my box back today, andI can't wait to have it!
