So I went out this afternoon to buy another one, and after trips to Wal-Mart, Target, GameStop, and K-Mart, I finally found one at Toys R Us... I have no idea why it was so hard to find. I'm just going to have the other one fixed and I'll turn around and sell it to a friend or something.

I know we've only had a couple in stock since x-mas but that's how it's been for pretty much every system except PS3 which none of our stores have come close to selling out of since its launch. The good thing I can tell u Matty about all this, I personally have only seen maybe 5-6 360's made since September when the new chip sets were installed, turn up defective and none in the last 2 months. I know it totally sucks when one breaks as I'm on my second, but the only system maker I've ever seen to be totally reliable is Nintendo and that is a weekly reminder as I've seen tons of broken PS2's, Xboxs, 360's, and lately a few 80 gig PS3's over the last year.
