    The Xbox 360 Core I bought in March 2006 is now on life support. It was kind of acting flakey as of late, so that was probably the writing on the wall for it. Went to fire it up today and it RRoL'd on me (may as well have rickrolled me). After a few times, I slugged the top of the console (!) and it actually worked a few times restarting (!!!). Unfortunately, now it just either RRoL's or glitches on the startup sequence before getting to the blades.

    Called tech support and got thru fairly successfully (compared to most of my calls for my old Dell laptop :DOH:), but I'm not counting on having my console back before Mass Effect arrives at my door (Amazon pre-order).:noooo:

    RRoL? What is that, the Red Ring of Life? I think you mean RRoD.

    Red Ring of Light - I don't think MS officially refer to it as RRoD. ;-)

    I think the "D" implies Doom for them...
