Apart from what looks like glue holding the cpu and gpu down.
IIRC that's on the Elite - not the current models.
My 2p - I don't even think the glue will fix the problem - rather lenghten the life-span to surpass the warranty sufficiently that 'you' cannot complain!
I think anyone suggesting the X360 is not 'unreliable' is simply blinkered, the facts (or is that stats!?) speak volumes...I know barely anyone who has a X360 and hasn't had a problem...in fact the story earlier (trying to rub it in) is probably the last of a dying breed.
In fact I know a few who have had many consoles, and these are not uneducated folk! They know about the issues, and let the machine have space to keep a good air-flow (etc)...I myself am on my 2nd machine, but what when this dies? I feel I have a ticking time-bomb on my hands...and an expensive one at that!
Conversely both my Wii & PS3 have been fine (touch wood!) - FWIW I just think MS were so keen to launch first they launched with a 'half-baked' console that clearly needed more testing.
