In my case I hadn't had the three rings of death actually appear before my call so I didn't know how to handle it. I wanted the free repair but if that wasn't available I wanted to question a real person to understand what would happen. If they were going to charge me, say $100, to fix it, I probably wouldn't have got it fixed - instead I would have used that money for a new elite unit. But, happily it RRoD'd during the call getting me a free repair. ...Dale Thanks Brian:

My launch day 360 just RRoD and I have the box on the couch waiting to go to UPS. One recommendation for others is use the online site. It takes about 2 minutes and there is no troubleshooting required. I just said it was Three Red Rings and it gave me choice of box or label. Just like you I am curious what I will get back now. It appears there is a new frankenstein board called Opus http://www.xbox360fanboy.com/2008/06/18/opus-model-360s-begining-to-flow/ that is being shipped for repaired machines.

The failure is supposed to happen 19 days -after- warranty, not before. Obviously the engineers messed up on this one. The failure is supposed to happen 19 days -after- warranty, not before.
