    yeah the RRoD is wasy to fix. the most common problem is overheating, so what you do is you take apart the 360, take off the X brackets on the CPU and GPU, re-apply thermal paste, put it back together and viola, its fixed

    I'd rather not void a warranty that I should have for another three months at least.

    Yeah RRODs suck. I remember when the 360 that I had been keeping in my car sarted to RROD. It was an 2005 model and it was out of standard warrenty. I had to call Microsoft and they went ahead and took care of everything. There was even a few days of delay and I ended up getting a free year of live out of it. They also sent me a spare 20GB, which I returned because I'm sure there was someone who needed it more.

    I think my Dev kit is going to die soon. It's about time I get a new one anyway though.

    EVERY Xbox 360 warranty is 3 years under the RROD cause. It will never end.
