Just died on its own Saturday. The red lights of death. Tried calling support and did what they told me. No luck. Now they expect me to pay them $160 to fix something that broke on its own. I told them hell no. I bought the fucking thing on 7/01/2006 and 4 months later (1 month after its warranty) the fucking thing breaks and they won't fix it? I can see if I dropped it or something but nope.
I know people have had a lot of issues with the 360 but I expected 8 months after the launch that maybe at least some of the issues would be fixed.
I won't be sending it in to them, that's for damn sure. I'd rather just let it be and maybe buy a new one sometime down the road than get a refurbished broken machine back for $160.
For now here is what I'm going to try

Anyone else have some insight? I've spent $1000 on this thing in the 4 months I've had it. Maybe $160 to repair it isn't a lot but for me it's more the principle of it all.
