  Another one Bites the Dust

  I have another Dead 360. The one I was using for a spare died upon return to my sister. Its being shipped back to Microsoft today. For some time I was able to happily proclaim that I own 4 Xbox 360s and haven't really had a problem. Now its not true. This is the 3rd RROD for me total.

  I'm seriously considering canceling my Gamefly membership. I get perks because I've been a member so long. Its 10% off every store purchase and a $5 gift card every month. I don't want to lose my benefits, but I seriously do not have enough time right now to keep up with my 3 game at a time plan. I'm pretty sure if I leave and come back they'll restart my time. Anyway, I have nothing against their service, but I think I'll be fine without them for a while.

  Help me with my homework, plz!

  I'm working on a business plan for a class I'm taking right now. I have to come up with a name for this theoretical computer store I'm making. I would like it to be a business that is more of a retail store that does repair work than a repair store that sells stuff so I'd like a name that fights that. I would like it to be appealing to gamers but also women, sorry girls gamers, and anyone else. I've already spent some time with a thesaurus, here are my ideas:

  Computer Fix

  PC Remedy

  PC Tune-up

  Computer Improver

  Absolute Computer

  Complete Computer

  Convenient Computer

  Correct Computer

  Computer Zone

  Neighborhood Computer

  Quality Computer

  Choice Computer

  Best Computer

  PC Zone

  Computer Power

  Please, tell me which of my suggestions you like best and why. Also make any suggestions you want. They don't have to be two words or contain computer, and it doesn't have to say computer. Thanks for your help.

  360 back from repair

  I was able to return my sister the 360 she uses to her. It not her 360, despite her insisting that it is. Its my spare 360, hence why I've been using it while mine was getting fixed. Its also the Rock Band 360 where all my DLC for that is stored. Anyway, its mine (I paid for it), but I'm letting her have it back... to use, not to own.

  Since i sent it back on the 9th, it took only 10 days to gett back. Given that 4 of those days were weekend, thats not too bad. Microsoft gave me a 1 month gold card, which I'm giving to my sister so she can Rock Band online some. Hopefully she thinks that makes up for some of her "suffering". Her life is so hard, I know.
