Out of all the broken 360's I've either repaired or bought for parts every one of them has been an Xenon. I've not seen any of the others with red light faults only dvd drive issues.

I play my xbox without the shell and I got it 3 days after launch and have never had a problem. I fix alot of RRoD. And from what I can tell, if you smoke in the house or if you keep it in a entertainment set... You'll have problems. I own 3 xbox and I de-shell them all!

I am on my 4th deck. I believe it is nearing the end of its life also as it frequently freezes with extended gameplay. Hope the 5th time is a charm. My nephews lasted three months and was purchased last summer. A good friend of my is on his 4th deck as well. And one fried of mine trades his deck in when there is a price or hardware change. He a got a new one with the first price drop and then another when they added elite with hdmi and his are doin ok but technically he's on his third.
No smoker in the house. sits on a glass shelf by itself nothing within 8 inches of it approximately 2 ft from a sliding glass door that keeps it cool.
Blu Enigma de-shelling them is saving them by dissipating the heat not not having them in an entertainment center.
