I read here that frequently unplugging the slim (as opposed to the phat) could cause the red dot of death on the power brick. Is this really true though? If so, why? I'm wondering if it is in fact safer to unplug my slim whenever I want. Which is the best way to go?

I wouldn't take yahoo answers to seriously.

But to be safe, when you do unplug, start at the wall then the console,.....and when you plug back in, start at the console then the wall.

I can't see it being a problem tho.
