Whenever we lost a 360 we got a pre owned 360 from gamestop. I think they went for like $70 for one without any hdd.

That was the real story, by the time they started dying you could just grab a working one for "decently cheap" if you still cared.

However, I wonder how many people got "burned" by it and swore off Xbox consoles going forward.

I know that era we got a lot more use out of the Xbox (original) and the Wii.

I knew plenty of people who had rrod no one swore off xbox though. You were still in the ecosystem through games, controllers, xbox live membership, and in my case network effects since we all played halo.
