Microsoft adds second Heat sink!

by JW

File this one under “Why the hell didn’t you do this from the start?!”. Apparently people who are getting their 360s back from Microsoft are now finding that there is a second heat sink inside the console that will help to keep the temperature down.

Why the hell wasn’t this in the 360 when the system launched? Imagine how many consoles this would have saved if Microsoft would have had this foresight.
