It's been a week and almost 2 days and my repaired XBOX 360 has returned. All seems well currently. It's definitely running quieter than previously and they sent me a 1 month Gold XBOX Live membership. I do have a few of those (well the 48 hour trial ones..guess i need to find them and use them). It's official..GAME ON tonight. Feels good to be back in the ranks of the XBOX 360 crowd. HoustonTX224
