If it makes you guys feel better, my PS3 has made it through a 7 month trip to Fallujah sucking in dust during hundreds of furious COD 4 split screen battles. We got back last April, and not a problem to date. Just a tiny bit of spray duster and it keeps on tickin'. The tv was a different story...
Yea PS3's are quite amazing lol. My PS2 just won't die, and my PS3 has had NO problems.

It happened to me today. My X-Bbox 360 flashed the Ring of Death . Now, I am a$$ed out a X-Box for at least 3 weeks. I followed the story in the above link exactly. I asked them for some compensation. They offered me a free 1 month Gold Membership to X-Box live. Which means nothing, because I dont care for X-Box live. I also asked them for a free game as compensation. The operator paused for a while, and declined what I wanted. The operator stated that there form of compensation was 1 month of free X-Box live, and free shipping back and forth for this POS.

So now I have to package it and ship it out ASAP. The told me this process should take about 3 weeks. I will keep you guys posted on what happens.
the ring of death can be fixed now in HK buy 3rd party shops, not MS and only takes about 1 hour to do.

No, i didn't meant third party software. I meant Apple software vs MS software. Like Leopard vs Windows Vista, like iWork vs Office.
