Funny, I was just having this conversation with a guy at Best Buy. He said that the newer 360's had all the glitches fixed and do great (we've had ours 9 months). The ones that were first brought out did have some problems but they have been fixed now, the ones that were purchased about a year after the first release are fine. I was asking him because every PS2 we have had (yes, there have been three) has died on us.
