Most people won't even know it hit, because it only exists in repaired consoles. This is Microsoft's solution to their recurring GPU failure issue.

Yeah... I'll be honest, this post is primarily for myself and Unlucky, as we appear to be the only people in this corner of the internet that really keep up with this nerdy jazz.

I love the nerdy stuff even if I don't really understand it all. I'm pretty sure I got something new in my recently repaired box, as it sounds and acts differently. I could check but that means opening up and then I'll start prodding things with my fingers.

Not to mention voiding your warranty. They should be fixing the problem, but seeing as I've never dealt with one, I couldn't say for sure.

I follow this shit. 

It's my understanding that The reason the Pro's dropped in price was to phase them out to allow the 60GB models to replace them.  They won't be getting the price drop.  I figured they'd be the new mobo's.
