Who has the oldest xbox360 manufacture date and still working

Born = 6th November 2005
Brought = 12th December 2005
Usage= average 10-20 hours a week
Working still = Yes
System type = Premium

Not really worried, if it goes it goes I suppose. Not much I can do about it. It's well ventilated so I doubt it will overheat.

Funnily enough I'm getting more lock ups this week than Ive ever had, since playing lego. Sure it's coincidence

I read somewhere that Lego Star Wars was buggy and it was the software causing the lock ups and not the hardware.

I've played through Lego Star Wars and it was fine on my 360.

^^

Only problem I had was the known glitching at the start of one of the Episode VI levels.

Had a core from launch but was replaced ...

Current one (which was new not refurbished):

Manufacture Date: 2006-01-01
Usage: 9/10 months of heavy use, 20-40 hours a week + 15 hours DVD usage
System Type: Core (+ Hard Drive)

So, not bad really.

Pretty much the same here, bought on launch and has been played quite a bit although not a lot lately as too busy with other things.

No problems apart from the noise of it drives my head in sometimes.

Question:
Are the newer models with different DVD drives really any quieter?

MrM3 add me get you sometime (ibmatix)

Mine says 2006 4 7, so I'm assuming that's manufacture date of 7th April 2006? Not really played it that much to put it under stress yet but I'm hoping if it does die it's within warranty period.
