Xboxing Again

I received my Xbox 360 today after sending it out a month ago because of the red ring of death.

It seems to be fine again.  I had very few problems with it before the red ring.

Included with the console was a card for a one-month gold live subscription.  A proper thing to do seeing as I couldn’t use my subscription for a month.

I’ve yet to test the movie we downloaded just before we had to send it in.  Blood Diamond, and in HD.  You have 14-days to watch the movie, and 24 hours once you start it.  I hope I don’t have to pay for it again, or pester support more.  I tried asking Xbox support about this on the phone and wasn’t understood.  I then tried emailing and was told I’d have to call.  Hopefully I won’t have to.

  1. I’m a big fan of borrowing DVDs from the library. a lot of library systems have decent websites and you can reserve movies and put yourself on hold for ones that are coming out. so it’s like netflix but free

  4. First, the reality of it: we only get HD DVDs or download things in HD.  Almost everything new is available one way or another.  If it’s not, then I could go pick it up (but even the local Blockbuster doesn’t carry it).

    Second: double raspberry
