SpawnPoint - Where Game Begins

When I was crazy enough to think of buying a PS3, that was one (of two) of the major selling points of it. The ability to install an operating system on it would make it something I'd actually use besides the Blu-Ray. The only problem I have with that is that with OS', even on consoles, you have the possibility of viruses and other stuff that might harm the console. Also, people probably have found ways of downloading...hacks or other things onto the OS to be used in games. Though, you have to admit, it is pretty cool..Yellow dog is a good operating system and it could be put to good use. Microsoft really needs to follow up on their so called promise of bring a folding esc feature to the 360. Rossetta I believe it was called, im sure that I would Download it..

When did you get your xbox? Its not normal when it lags on the menus.

Even with MSN running in the background it should not lag. I usually have msn running, along with Live, while chatting with my friends both over the voice communicator and using the chatpad...and I usually have music playing and i STILL don't lag in the menus Or in the the games themselves. September 07 360s shouldn't do that as they have the new(er) chipset then the November 06 chipset that I have in mine.

360 warranties were extended to three years, so if you want to try and send it in, it would still be under warranty. You'd have to explain your case but chances are they would accept it and look in, perhaps even replacing it.

You should send that in to get look into. It really should not be doing that. Remember, like I said, every single xbox is still under warranty for atleast another year. So if they deem it worthy of a replacement then you wont have to pay for a new one they will just send one right too you.

Lol, do you get your stuff second hand there Slayer, or you must just have REALLY bad luck. I believe accessories are covered under the warranty, though I would phone before sending in as it would be pointless. Here's a list of sources you can try to get that information:
