It’s a Christmas miracle!! I fixed my Xbox 360 by checking the USB ports like this kid talks about in this video. It looks like someone tried plugging in a controller and bent the pins. If the pins touch any of the metal casing around it, the Xbox does not turn on.
I'm definitely a geek. I love playing around with software. I'm a proud Mac Mini owner who knows his way around in various Linux distros and by trade work in a Windows/Citrix/Terminal Services environment. Back in the day, I used to watch TechTV religiously and have been a Digg.com user since before it got popular.
