Well my 360 came back today. Despite the scare stories they got my machine last friday and now that its arrived its the same model that I had originally still in the same condition I sent it off to them..
It was strange cause today I felt like giving MS customer services a call to try and get updates on how my machine was doing... and they told me that I should wait 15 days before I get my machine back.. the call center clerk also gave me a tracking number for me to arrange with UPS a collection time for when my machine was ready to be picked up...
Just an hour after that call my door bell rang and someone from UPS came and delivered my machine...

One thing for sure is that its been cleaned inside and out (got that strange chemical cleaner smell that you use to clean computer parts) and it now runs cooler.. before the air that was blowing out at the back felt like that of a hair dryer at warm heat settings.
Apart from playing Phantasy Star universe again I just got hold of ninety nine nights.
