I think when i did my camber plates i did them faster then i did your car but that was mainly because we were sharing tools. Otherwise i definitely would have beaten my record.

i remember reading that- he bought it used though- do you know offhand if the warranty is transferable?

on a side note, mine is 'modded' and has never had a problem. my buddy bought it when it was first released (I think he stood in line for 7 hours) and replaced the fans and whatnot and never had a problem. the cooling is simply inadequate in stock form. also, i always leave it on the middle of the floor just to be safe so it doesn't overheat.

stupid microsoft.

you have gta4 yet?

It is pathetic they cant cool the system especially considering the power supply is outside of the system which usually adds a lot of the heat.

i would assume it was transferable, hopefully the other guy never registered it, even if he did though, i think they'll still fix it.
i have gta4 for ps3, i play call of duty on the xbox too much so i had to have a reason to play my ps3..........didn't really work though, i still play cod4 on my 360 too much. i need to get gta4 so i can play with you guys sometime. i heard that if you wrap the xbox in a towel you can get a little more life out of it. not exactly sure why that would work, seems like it would heat it up more, but still a fun little trick if it works at all


p.s. mikie from now on i'm calling you warlock.........you should have had that part! you would have been much better than kevin smith

I bought the gamestop warranty back in september, and I already had one replaced. So I think I can just go through them....I hope.

I had fun last night, despite being a cranky b**ch! Sorry!


Nothing beats a full spring install in 45 minutes... too bad The Dream Team had Turco slowing us down...


I'm still up for haning out one more night this week...just lemme know what you fools want to do.
