Topic	What's gonna happen once many PS3s and 360s have crapped out?

There's a capacitor on 6/7 models that's guaranteed to leak and corrode the traces on the motherboard if it's not removed. Every single system that has that capacitor will fail. Lots of systems are already dying and it's just going to get worse over time. With the PS3 and 360 there are a lot of failures but most of the ones that were going to fail have already done so, and the later models fixed the problems. Couldnt it just be replaced with a higher quality cap? You can just rip it out actually. It's not that important. --- Do unto others what your parents did to you. <cite>SpiralDrift posted [p:911018476] in What's...
