    Mine has died once, but it wasn't the fabled three red rings of death but just one red ring.
    So I  would have had to spend £60 and wait 3 weeks for it to be processed . Instead I just bought one of the new arcades a few weeks back which is cool because I got a HDMI output now but the mat white finish on the disc tray is not so cool.

    I am one of those lucky ones who have never had any problems with their Xbox 360.
    Had it for 20 months now.

    Once as well and I got mine back within roughly 2 weeks. No delicious bribery required. It wasn't the 3 RRoD though, it was one single flashing red ring so I had to pay about £40 to get it fixed. :(

    Still on my very first one, allthough it locks up quite a bit lately, suspect it will die off soon.

    I am on my third console. My first one lived from August 2006 to April 2007 before the disc drive completely crapped itself. My second one lived from May 2007 to October 2007 when it started mutilated my discs. I've been on my third one since November 2007 and all seems well, except that it makes some weird rattling noises when I turn it on and after I turn it off.

    My first 360 is still going strong.

    Though I think there is something wrong with the disk tray, my discs get scratched very quickly.

    It's died once. The replacement they sent me RRODs every so often, but all I have to do is turn it off, then back on and it's fine. *shrug*

    My Premium broke because of the disc tray and I have had since launch.  That happened last summer and it was only gone for 2 weeks.  My Elite hasn't broke yet and I've had it for about 7 months.  *Knocks on Wood*

    I am currently on my 3rd Xbox 360.  One was a launch one, got it day before Christmas.  Died that day.  Merry Christmas.  Second one wouldn't load after a couple months.  So they sent me number 3 which has worked for now.  This is a ridiculous trend.  They don't deserve our millions of dollars for this.

    Had the same problem with original xboxes too.  Went through 3 of them as well.

    Mine died only once, last October. Although I heard a lot of horror stories of long repairs and breaking right when you turn it on, I got it back the next week and haven't had any problems so far.
