Correct, I've had mine on the powerstrip (w/ surge protect) for a little under a year now with no issues... but who knows. I give up.. I want a new one.

I need to learn the Team games a bit better, I was getting wacked every 3 seconds it seemed.

FARG! I got the 3 red lights ring last night after playing for 2 minutes after a 1 week break. It just froze up, turned it off and back on. Red ring.

ARGH! I rarely play over 2 hours too! I DO have 2 more months left on my extended warranty with the store I bought it from, but I did the minor troubleshoot to remove the ring and now its gone so I can't reproduce it... wonder if they will still replace the console.

Crap.
lol. I'm actually still TRYING to get the ring

I was trying very hard not to really, but now I'm glad I did with the newer replacement I got.

You could always wrap the power brick and console in warm blankets.

Well, just got my 360 yesterday, along with COD4. Once I get back to Virginia(in Chicago right now), I'm going to set up my gamertag and get this game started!
