Stupid rings of death

Has anyone else noticed how stupid the rings of death are?

Drunkenmonkey received the fabled rings last night trying to play bioshock but he's just realised today that it might be 4 rings instead of 3 so there's a glimmer of hope there.

I mean, when they were developing the console, what knobhead created those 2 error codes so close to each other?

4 lights: Your AV cable is slightly out, needs jiggling.
3 lights: Your console is proper fucked, needs chucking.

There must have been a shit load of people who have sent their console back thinking it's knackered only to have been told 4 weeks later that their console is fine and it was 4 rings, not 3.

How about:

Top left ring blinking: AV cable out, needs jiggling.
All rings on solid: Fucked.

Then at least there'd be no confusion.

Fucking clown shoes.

Got the missus to fire the bastard up earlier.
It's 3 lights.
Gutted.

Going home to see if dishing out some tough love helps it.
