look what it does to your consoles! Here are some pictures of an xbox 360 i got to fix. The console was not able to read games due to a weak laser, guess what contributes to that, you guessed it, smoke. The last picture is of a 360 that is actually slightly older than the first from a non smoking home Full size pictures…

To be a nitpick it's not the smoke but the tar. But still.. Eeek.
Did you charge extra?
