yeah it's true. funny this is the second time i have posted this today in a forum.

early gen 360's...rumor was they were rushed and 1 of the overseas factories wasn't doing strong solder points...and that is compounded by the fact they have this foil heat shield..essentiatlly that can help to block in humidity, which converts to water at somepoint, can freeze, convert back..anyway bad stuff for electrical components and can crack those solder points that aren't 100%.

the fix is bonafide. i just haven't done it because i have a 2yr warranty..my first did get fragged and i am on my third now. i just keep sending them in and getting new refurbs.

anyway, this fix is so well known..and so cheap. that's why "broken" 360's still can get a lot of money on ebay.
