Red ring of Xbox death costs Microsoft $1bn

Too late

I had 2 Xbox 360's between sept last year and around a month ago. Both died and both got returned to the shop. That was extremely annoying as it meant that I had to restart the games when I replaced the console. When the second one died I just couldn't face doing it again. Took the 360 back to the shop, sold the games at work and got myself a PS3.

The games aren't there yet but the system is so much quieter and should come into it's own when Assassins Creed and GTAIV are out.

As an aside, how many 360's have been sold if you deduct the warranty returns?
