Blame it on the companies that always comes up with a new revision to cut costs i don't know how many XBOX 360 revisions are yet it still have the RROD, why should the manufacturer to be blamed? they are just building things to spec. Computer has been a fierce industry and the current economic situation does not help.

My i7 is about 1 yr old and i expect to use it for the next 4 yrs, so i give it 5 yrs life, i hope i'd get there (fingers crossed
