I've had one since launch day, well a little before launch actually. Never had a problem with it. I've done some pretty heavy gaming on it too, 3-4 hour sessions. Played movies through it, played audio discs, streamed my iPod and played arcade games from the hard drive on Live. Just make sure it is well ventilated (the 360 unit and the power block) and is sitting horizontally. I've heard it can scratch discs if it's standing vertically.

If you're a lite gamer, you'll want to check out the Xbox Live Arcade. You can download, for a small fee, a bunch of old school games like Robotron, Joust. Or puzzle games like Hexic HD. Some pretty fun ones on there.
