The red ring if death is where instead of the lights bieng green they turn red. three of four lights flash red and that symbolizes internal hardware failure.

It takes two weeks to ship it out, get it fixed, and get it back; if even that long. I've had my 360 over a year and I've only gotten the RROD once. It was easy to fix, and you still have the towel trick if you have to keep playing.

No big deal. Even with the RROD, the 360 is still by far my favorite console.

I'm to pissed about my Red Rings of Death that I'm getting a PS3. I also think that the PS3 also has a better future line up so yeah I'm pretty happy.

Red Ring was a really big deal, but to be honest i only know about two people personally out of about the 50 friends of mine that own 360s got red ring. Some of my friends even tried to fix it....

I got it about 5 days after I got my 360. I sold the "new" one about 2 months later.

I've had the red rings once, right after the first time I tried to connect it online. Lucky for me, it was only a few days after the warranty had expired and they let me exchange it for free. I have had one act up internally without the red rings. Would constantly get "Disc Unplayable: Clean the disc then reinsert it into the tray." Or something along those lines. That one was also covered under warranty. The current one I've had about a year. Nothing so far.

I had this right before I got the rings....My 360 had Alzheimer's.

hmm i've gotten the red rings twice on the same system, it still works fine, once every 3 or 4 months it will give me that disc unreadable thing, i just resart the system and whipe the disc and it works fine again. the red rings never seemed to bother me, it didn't cripple my console or anything.

360 sucks in terms of reliable hardware.

I thought they fixed the problem with the Elites so that it rarely happens to them? :S
