Our Xbox 360 has been acting up the last few days. Lots of screen freezes. Then tonight, I got the three red lights on the ring of death. So it looks like the Xbox 360 has had a hardware failure. This is the second one that I have had this happen to. Luckily for me the three red lights popped up tonight, because the unit is out of its warranty, but because of the three red lights issue, it will be repaired for free. The last time this happened Microsoft would not do warranty exchanges here in Guam and the Navy Exchange exchanged the defective Xbox 360 and gave me a new one. But now, Microsoft will do a warranty exchange here in Guam. So I will have to mail the unit off to Microsoft to get it repaired or replaced. The timing on this sort of sucks, because our friends here in Guam just got their kids and Xbox Live account and our boys had been having fun playing online together. Oh well, schools about to start anyways, and we don't do any video games on school days. So I don't think that the boys will miss it too much.
On a similar note, our 52 inch Toshiba rear-projection television is crapping out. It has a really fuzzy picture and is barely tolerable to watch. I think that I need to have one of the bulbs replaced or something like that. I have been having trouble finding a TV repair place here in Guam that can fix a rear-projection television. I'm going to call a few more places tomorrow to see If I can't find someone who can fix it.
