What ? Who told you that ? How about the 3 elites that are at my place undergoing repair ? They do hae the older zephyr motherboards though. The hardware is exactly the same on all 3 iterations (arcade, pro, elite) so any of them can get RROD. It has reduced a lot with the last revision of the motherboard, the falcon, mine is gonna be 2 years old in Nov and it works fine so far. The jasper, the latest revision of the m/b is supposed to be an improvement over the falcon and is supposed to be less prone to rrod. They have a 3 year warranty for RROD and E74 errors, if at all anything does go wrong. Go ahead, and buy it. To sum it up, they've vastly improved reliability with each iteration of the motherboard. Chances of RROD are very less on Falcon and Jasper m/bs

^^ Jasper is the latest, and the best of the lot. It is a slight improvement over the Falcon motherboard, uses 150W compared to 175W of the falcon. The jasper is current only found on Arcade and pro (rarely) models. I have yet to see them on the Elites over here. Falcon and jasper are just codenames for the type of motherboards found on the 360. So far the order is : Xenon (1st revision)
Zephyr (2nd revision)
Falcon (3rd revision)
Opus (4th revision, without HDMI, only sent on refurbished consoles)
Jasper (5th revision)

The retards at the store wont help you with this, they wont even know what it is in the first place. Look for this sticker on the box:

If the Lot number is anything above 0843, it has a jasper. Also there is a small flap on the box that you can open to see the serial number of the console, double check this to make sure that the final five digits of the serial number are higher than 843xx (where xx = 05,07 etc)

Is the RROD over? Is Arjun out of business? I hope not for both.

Oh you know how it is, the world will never run out of women of all ages who need pleasing from well endowed men - so its always good. Especially in these hard recession times.

dude i was like u and i was afraid of the rings, chances are u might get it, and u might not get it, the jasper motherboard will just lessen the chances of getting it, and if u did get it, u can either send it to the service center like urs truly, or get arjun to mess it up:grin2::grin2:

I was also scared like shit when my I first got my 360 in fears of the RRoD... Right now it's been running for over a year since it RRoD'd and it's out of warranty and I still don't give a shit if anything happens to the console for some reason...

I'm like getting the feeling of cumming in the gym, getting the feeling of cumming at home, and cumming backstage when I pump up and when I pose out in front of 5000 viewers, I get the same feeling, so I'm cumming day and night! I mean it's terrific...right?" - Arnold Schwarzenegger
