Took 5 days for me to get my new xbox, from the time I asked UPS to collect my broken xbox. Not sure where you got the two months from. ;)

Did you still have a warranty?

Disk Drive on my PS3 died about 4 months ago. Bit skint to be paying out 130 for a replacement one.

Thing is i've got the girlfriends xbox and they are pretty horrid machines. When I start it up it sounds like it is going to take off but not before drilling through my desk.

With every passing day 130 quid sounds more like value for money.
