From gamesindustry.biz: "SquareTrade, a firm that specialises in electronics warranties, has found that of a sample of 1000 Xbox 360 consoles, the failure rate was 16.4 per cent."

Normally consumer electronics try to shoot for failure rates of 2-3% or less, if I remember correctly. I have a hunch that 16.4% is even a little bit low. My Xbox 360 has been fine so far (knock on wood), but since announcing Rivet beta testing starting tomorrow, no less than two of the 15 testers we have lined up have informed me that their Xbox has gone belly-up in the past two weeks.

This seems appropriate:

And don't get me started on the DRM hell a busted Xbox 360 gets ya.
