I've had my 360 for so long I didn't think it would happen to me but it did, the RROD.

When I send mine in (it's under Microsoft extended warranty) will I get a one with the HDMI and the new chipset?

Fat chance.

You'll probably get your same system back, or another refurbed unit.

They don't upgrade you to the HDMI models, you most likely won't even get the same one back.

On the phone right now.

The automated non-Indian guy is annoying as .

"You said Xbox 360 console, that's fan-tastic!"

EDIT: the phone guy has a New York accent, did they move their call centers?

I'm ready to, you can see the Glade Room Freshener near the 360.

What the ? After waiting for 10 minutes he said their software is down so I have to call back tomorrow.

 

[MSUHitman]

I think they must do that to keep the numbers of 360's they authorize coffin's for down (I bet that's one of the metric's MS keeps track of for them to keep their jobs.) Same thing was said to me back in May 06 when my launch unit fried.

Also next time please post this in the dedicated thread for 360 failures:
