This is totally unexceptable. There needs to be a huge class action lawsuit against MS for this (if there isn't already). When you get the red ring and have to send the unit in, do you lose all your saved games?

I have not heard of a single PS3 going bad.

The other 40 percent of failures include disc-read errors, dead video cards, hardware freezes, power failures, and disc trays that sometimes damage game discs.

This was a problem on the original xbox where i went through 2 xbox's only using clean discs, and using everything on microsofts site, and they should have to cover things like that. I'm already on my 2nd 360 and i just had a power failure in town and now the 360 has red ring of death again, not only that microsoft sent me the old 90nm chip which severely overheats, so if they don't cover it again, i'm gonna get my replacement 360 one way or another, and i most definitely (justice wise) shouldn't have to pay for another one, espescially since i'm disability and can't afford it, i won mine in a contest.
