would this, in your guys opinions, warrant exchanging my unit for a new one?
what could cause this, since it wasnt hot, i had just turned it on...
the screen was bouncing around, well more like a little shaking than bouncing, but it wasnt pretty.
even the dashboard was doing it when i hit the guide button

UhOh... If I were you, I'd toss that one back to MS.

Might grab another from a store to keep you busy till she comes back though.

PS: Keep your hdd, dont want to lose your profiles. They'll supply you with another.

Crappy MS Hardware and lack of sufficient Beta Testing.

That same thing happened to me. I was playing multi-player in Russia. My xbox doesnt get too hot or anything after hours of play.

you think they would consider that a big enough problem to send me a new one even though it only happened once?

I had that exact same problem. I think it might be the GPU or something overheating because my xbox was hot. I called MS and sent it in (it was a core) and got a nice new 360 with chrome dvd bezel and hdd. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/biggrin.gif)  You should probably send it back since you don't want it to start happening more often after your warranty expires.

well.. my stance on it is to wait it out as long into the warranty as possible so maybe a newer version is sent back

Right.  It only happened once.  My suggestion would be to spend more time playing the game, both for enjoyment and to see if it happens again.
