Then it breaks.. haha, so just say its had it and you need a new one.

As much as i like the 360 compared to the PS3, the actual machine is a POS.
From what I've read it was mainly the first production run, they took a lot of short cuts to get it on the shelves in a hurry, the later runs are supposedly of better quality. I prefer the Xbox 360 over the PS3 but when things like this happen I really start taking a closer look at the Sony machine.
