Red Ring of Death only happens on Xbox 360s, and the Yellow Light of Death only happens on PS3s. Both indicate general hardware failure.

If there's any other significant difference, it's that the RROD occurs much more often than the YLOD.

Oh, hah. Duh me. Didn't look close enough at the thread title; saw the R, then the OD, and never bothered to check out the S.
