Go figure...

Refalm:
Now they only have to solve the issue of not having protective pads around the HD-DVD lence (which causes DVD's to be scratched).

Anyway, here's some visual proof from VARA's Kassa:

SiMuLaCrUm:
Doubt that they will fix that because of how they deny the claims of damage... (N)

Lead Head:
While the RROD problem itself may be fixed, what does this do for all the older consoles still susceptible to it? I guess they just plan to replace them? 4 Years to finally get a problem nixed is way to long. It is like a car company making an engine that explodes after 5000 miles, and they kept making it for four years before they finally got it figured out.

I've personally have never had any of my games scratched by my 360 however

SiMuLaCrUm:
I doubt they would go through the trouble replacing every 360. Mine hasn't RROD'd (yet, it's an elite so there might be a difference). Mine has not scratched either. That mostly happens when you move the console standing up to it's side of vice versa. Most people don't realize that and end up blaming the device itself. I think the manual says somewhere not to move it when there is a disk playing, but then again, I hardly read the damn thing...
