I got my xbox 360 elite on release day and haven't had any problems with RROD, EVER!
However, I broke my disk tray when i dropped it. :-(

i think cause of what type of forum this is, we're actually beating the spread of the article, tho i think it's cause we're mostly gamers here and play it more

either way it's looking like the article is correct

I have my original x box 360 pro for about 2 years now no problems. I read somewhere that if you plug it directly into the wall and not a surge protector you won't get the RROD. thats what I've been doing.

Sooo... Approximately 2/3rds of all Xbox owners in the poll had experienced one or more RRODs. Makes me want to consider a PS3 for my next console, to be honest, and I was leaning towards the Xbox initially given the good online integration.

My fifth 360 died this past weekend. And it was quickly replaced on Monday. I've had the RRoD twice, and non related deaths three times.

Here's hoping number 6 will be one of those mythical consoles that actually last for more than 12 months.

My 360 got an E74 error with the bottom right segment lit red. A week later I go a replacement xbox after following the speedy, but initially unhelpful, support line.

my original xbox failed 2 years ago after about 3 years, the cd drive gave out. It was around that time that my ps2 started only playing medal of honor frontline after owning it for about 5 years, and my dreamcast died after almost 8 years. Sega made systems well.

Wow 79% of people are on their first Xbox. I applaud them because mine died after the first week, then again after two months making the total times I went back to Circuit City about that darn thing 4 times (The first three happened in the first week I had it)

It crashed once for no reason and has done a lot of struggling recently despite the fact I never play it.

If I used it more than once a month it probably would have died by now.

MY first 360 died from RRoD about 4 months into its life. Then the newer one died from another error later. Thus I switched to the more hardware stable PS3 about 2 weeks ago.

RROD twice. I don't care, it's covered.

EDIT: Actually it was 3 times. 3 RRODs on 2 consoles. Wasted my vote then.

Yeah, mine just started crashing with no rings at all, lucky for me it was still under it's year warranty!

ALWAYS keep the receipt!

RROD once, and I had the graphics chip melt. I'm waiting on repairs from Microsoft right now actually, number three step right up.
