Well mine finally got a red ring last night. Almost 2 years to the date of purchase. Ah well, now I've got a new one that runs way cooler and quieter....got 2 games out of it too.

Did you contact Microsoft about getting it fixed. They fixed mine twice for no charge. The first time it was out of warranty.
After fixing it the first time they gave me a three year warranty.

Nah I had the extended warranty from Best Buy so I just took it to them and got a new one that night. They gave me the full value from the original purchase and since the price dropped $80 or so, I actually made money after they rang up the new one. Plus the new one came bundled with Halo 3 and Fable 2. So overall it was a pretty good deal.
