My Xbox just caught on fire! (Update 5)
Sordid History:Update 5:
Had a brief Web chat today with Xbox Support Professional "Ramoncito" (which I pointed out to him likely meant "Little Ramone"; he said he didn't think it likely did).
Basically, he was surprised the pick-up box for my 'box hasn't shown yet. UPS evidently shipped it the day of the last call (Sept. 6), so the shortfall may be on the UPS side.
Regardless, we're a week into the "2.5 week round trip", so we shall see ...
