Copyright infringement is nothing more than civil disobedience to a bad set of laws. Lets renegotiate them.

its fun tho out of the 10 people I know that have 360s half have had to replace them 5 times, the rest either have had a problem that dispaered or was fixed with the replacement.

Its a crap shoot, just be ready for when it breaks because it will sooner or later because of the design flaws, because of them I have put of owning a 360 in a permante way, but for the rest of ya know what you are getting and be ready to deal with it when it hits....like dating...zippy dosne't do that either....zippy gets lonely too.... =0-o=.

I got shot of my Nyko and installed a Talismoon whisper quiet rear fan.
and extra XCM front cooler fan.
The heat sink is nice and cold, only fault the front XCM is NOT whisper quiet and the noise is worse than the Nyko Intercooler.

Okay, here is a great story for you guys: I had the infamous Nyko meltdown on my machine. Fused together, took some work to break the cooler off of the back of my 360, showing three burnt out plugs in my receptacle. Called Microsoft first, a manager there tells me "its O.K., just send it in and we'll take care of it" after FULLY explaining that my 3 RROD was a result of this Intercooler. Send it in, they send it back with the standardized "you're F'ed" letter. Call them no less than 12 times before I finally get a manager to tell me the reason I was denied warranty service was because the sticker on the back was scratched. Tampering. Yes, the sticker on the back, that is only attatched to the top part of the box. The front sticker, the REAL anti-tampering sticker, fully intact, not a mark. This was a replacement unit they had sent me, with those exact same scratches on the back present upon delivery. I give, you win, time is money and I'm already way too deep into this. Well, give Nyko a call, and they replace the system with a new HDMI version, brand new, immediately. Edward Fairchild was my POC in this matter and he really took care of me! I gotta say that for you Nyko haters, these guys really did do the right thing where I am concerned and if your console is damaged as a result of their product, you just need to call them and get it taken care of! Also, can you guys point me in the right direction for modding this new (4-4-2008) HDMI 360 Xbox? I mean flashing the firmware and extra cooling, 'cuz great as theiir customer service is, I just can't bring myself to attach another intercooler to my new baby....

...and the dead shall walk the earth...

Yeah, looks like an 80% chance I got a LiteOn. Is there any hope at all for us? Can it ever be flashed?

No, he's right, my last post was entirely irrelevant. You gotta be really careful on this site now, even mods aren't above flaming anymore...
