Worried about getting the 360....

I'm interested in getting one, but i heard about the red ring of death and now im worried....my friend said he got that and he had to buy another Xbox. How can i prevent the red ring of death?

Didn't Slim revision reduce the chance of RROD significantly?funsohng

Don't stress it. Just get one. It does come with a manufactors warranty. If you get one at Costco, Costco, well atleast the Costcos in california, give a two year warranty on xboxs, televisions, blu-ray players, and stuff like that.

Instal all your games too, saves a lot of wear on the DVD drive and lowers running temperatures.

my first 360 i bought in 2006 had the red ring after a few years.. i have a 360 elite and the slim now and havent had any problems with either one

The slims don't even have a ring, so it is literally impossible to get the RROD :)

You are just now buying one? RROD is the thing of the past. I own a slim and a old white hdmi console and they both work great. Just place it somewhere well ventilated, keep the system dust free, uhh lay it flat but not stand it vertical, keep it off carpets and you should be fine.
