Other than that life is good at the moment. Sort of... I'm definitely in a bad luck streak when it comes to hardware. My PC is starting to break (poor bastard, it's been 4 years of intensive (ab)use), my PS2's laser finally wore off and now the bitch doesn't read anything and, to top it off, my Xbox 360 got the RRoD. AGAIN! I can't fucking believe this shit! The first time I was like "ok, nothing to worry about M$ will take care of it". The fuck they did! Only one year has passed and this shit happened again. On the same console! (I know it's the same because of the serial number). Shit...
On the other hand, yesterday I occasional passed by a GAME store (they just recently started popping up over here, before we had no major retailers, only independent shops) and OMG what did I see? A used Xbox for 50€! That's as cheap as they get here! I couldn't resist so I passed by today to pick it up and it really seems to be in good condition, looks like the previous owner barely touched it (it has practically no scratches and only a handful of gamesaves on the hard-drive). It came with two controllers too, although I had to pay an additional 10 euros for those (still pretty cheap).
Right now I'm preparing to mod it because, you know, given the awesome potential of the system, having an unmodded Xbox is practically a sin. Wish me luck (I so hope my bad luck streak as finally passed, otherwise I'll probably brick it when trying to mod it...).
Edit: Great success! I managed to mod the sucker! :D Here, take a look at the process:

Good lord! It looks a hot mess in that picture! lol
And doesn't M$ fix your shit for free because of the RRoD? Either way, it's still shit that it happens all the time.
Good luck that. And Merry Christmas! :D
I feel your pain Neba. I know what it feels like to have a red ring. Microsoft does fix it for free if you are under the three year warranty only if you have three out of the four quadrants red. Otherwise, you have to pay for the repairs.
Neba the pirate of the white 360 ship, again in the tumultuous and fucked up sea of RROD. That's really bad. Watch out for ASAE dude! xD
Hi Neba.
Happy New Year!
Man about X360, in my case with the second RROD I would have selled imediatly the console.
