I got a solution. Liqud Nitrogen pumps, pour some food coloring in that bitch, BOOM. Xbox Cooling Juice. Sell it at 2,000 bucks an ounce. Mircosoft just made the gaming world way better.

...is "agressive flash mob" an option?These "anonymous rumours" come from a couple supposed insiders on Neogaf.
Make of that what you will.
I can not wait until I get sued for selling knockoff xbox cooling juice. I might even go one step further, drop some fancy science in my advert and sell liquid helium.
What if they have it set to go up in speed once it is out of the warranty period?Seems like a really lazy thing to do if it's due to poor cooling. What could happen is that they decide to up the clockspeed later in the system's life resulting in potentially reducing the XBone's life expectancy.
If it's true then Microsoft need to hire new people to design their stuff.

TBH I expect pretty high failure rates from both PS4 and XBO, after my 60GB PS3 got the YLOD I swore to never buy another console within it's first year, or even until a redesign, which is why I haven't bought a Vita or Wii U yet. PS3 didn't really start dying until their 2nd or 3rd year, so we still don't know how well built these are.

yeah, that's pretty sad, older consoles like the SNES didn't need cooling, the PS2(or was the Dreamcast) was the 1st to use fans to cooldown

Pretty much cause the NES runs at 2 Mhz, Snes also at 5Mhz ish?
N64 ran at I think 60Mhz but it has a simple heatsink over it.
Same goes for the early computers.
Low clockrate hardly causes heat so it won't need to be cooled that much ;]
Cooling fan is probably for the Turbo mode ;p
I remember me 450 Mhz P3 Katmai CPU only having a heatsink.
No cooling fans.
