xbox360? Be he alive or be he dead? Three Red Lights of DEATH! (La Luz De Muerto)

So what is the freakin deal? It appears that a lot of people who have either bought the xbox 360 way back when, or have just bought one like myself, are having issues with the dreaded (deep voice here) Three Red Lights of DEATH! Well I just bought my xbox in February of 2007 and have had some issues here and there. For starters, I had the game “Gears Of War” freeze on several occasions. The console stated that the disk was dirty, remove it, clean it and try again. Duhh. Blue screen of death anyone? Good ol PC’s. At any rate, things were fine for a while with occasional freezing. Not a big problem, still a little frustrating since I have been holding out for so long to finally buy one, and ended up spending over 800 bucks. Yesterday, i started playing Halo 2 and the screen froze again. Restarted my console and guess what? Yep 3 Red Lights. Dammit i said to my fiance. I Got on the phone w/ customer service lady from Brazil or wherever, fortunately I am still under warranty. They are sending me a box of doom, to send in my console, and for my troubles, they are giving me a 30 free XBL Gold subscription. I started immediately asking for Microsoft Points. ;) No can do, she says. Upsetting! 800+ bucks OUT THE WINDOW, straight into Bill Gates corduroys. Hopefully this issue can be resolved and not just covered up. Any idea if the xbox360 elite has any issues like this?
