How many people on this site have gotten the ylod on their ps3?

YLOD doesn't actually mean the system dies, it just indicating a hardware problem. Grant it, a huge majority of them do kill you system; however, there are some that can be simplily fixed (Like replacing a bad HDD.) Only problem is that if it isn't a HDD problem, there's really no way to fix it without opening you system. :\
 
I got my Ylod about a month ago, still debating if I should send it in for repair. The problem is, if I send in a 60 gig, I wont get one back. I still enjoyed playing my ps2 games on my ps3. But I think sony would rather you buy another ps2 as well.
 
Well my PS3 YLOD'd about 4 months ago at this point and its still not fixed. But Bifordus, if you do decide to send it in, send it to michigan to a place called Gamers Avenue. Ask for Kaleb once you get the number, if you need it i'll give it to you, and tell him your problem. He charges 75$ for YLOD fixes, no questions asked.

Its better than sending it to $ony. But anyway, no it isn't being blown out of proportion, its getting worse.
 
I have 2 PS3's. and both have had no problems. Personally, I think most of the YLOD reports are rabid Xbox fanboys trolling.
