  Sadly it's impossible to tell.  I could take a S/N from most any PC or a VIN on a car and find out what it's made of.  360's - Nada!  The serial # on this replacement sucker tells me it's a replacement but doesn't even come close to indicating when it was manufactured, etc.  They randomly issued batch #'s so you can't even look at the S/N and guess when it rolled off the factory floor.  I went to see the warranty on this replacement and it has no start date but now says June 1st, 2008 for an expiration?    That's weird, because that means I'd have had to have this one on the 1st.  Considering it's the 5th and it's slated to get in my hands via FedEx on the 7th... someone's rippin me off a couple days, eh? LOL!  On Tue, Mar 4, 2008 at 10:31 PM, Peter J.

Well it's in Ft. Worth TX but on FedEx Ground! The two day limit had long since passed and yesterday there wasn't any movement or updates.  I just remember to check now and viola'!! New serial #, meaning that puppy was smoked. And they've replaced it, but not from the regular location using UPS. This time it was the rumored FedEx Ground out of another city in Texas, even tho the tag says REPAIR CENTER we're very curious as to what'll pop outta that box!  Could it be a new non-HDMI? Could it be a new HDMI/Falcon mobo? Could it be the first of those heavily-reported and rumored POS's made from the leavings of formerly working and subsequently trashed 360's that've laid in giant piles waiting to be harvested for parts????  Hell, let's find out Friday about 2pm EST when the FedEx Ground Monkey brings it in with dents all over the box from driving like an ass and probably dropping it once coming up the office short stairwell. I love FedEx, but at least they ain't UPS and DHL!!  Tune in, if you can stand the suspense, in just 3 short days!!!  <yawn>  -- FREEActivate! Have you FREEActivated today?
