All of the rrod units are under warranty and repaired for free.

Umm... Sony's numbers stressed that it was sold to consumers.

Microsoft's numbers typically are the "been shipped to distributors and include boxes in the warehouse".

Apparently this time round, it also include "suckers^H^H^H^H^H^H^Hpeople who bought a second box because the first one failed".

I wonder if it also includes all those replacement units because of the 30% failure rate. And is it 30%? At $1.4 billion, assuming $150 to fix per box, we're talking about 9,333,333 boxes that will require fixing.

How many did they sell again? 19million? And of that, they expect to fix 9.3 million boxes?

50% failure rate? Well, maybe not, since it's over 3 years... still....

OK tell me this, how many are actually still working? That's the million dollar question of the day.

With a claimed 30% failure rate, can you assume that only 13,300,000 are still up and functional? And what of the folks that buy a 2nd after the first one dies?
