My Xbox 360 just died
As I am sitting on my sofa watching some television, I have a box sitting next to me that should be a part of all those nice shinny electronics near my television. Today my Xbox 360 finally succumb to the RRoD.
For those who don’t know, the RRoD (Red Ring of Death) is a problem the [...]
