Hi,

Probably not. I bought a Dell off of eBay. The sound card was disabled for some reason, and I was on the phone for almost an hour trying to get Dell to help me…they finally did, after charging me money because I wasn’t the registered owner for that service tag, and I didn’t have a technical warranty.

don’t count on technical support!

If your lucky and it has been unregistered, youll get a friggin mint bargain, as 360s are now covered by a 3 year warrenty. If it is registered to someone, it really hard to change, not worth it if you balence up the risks though…
