Should I sell my xBox 360 for a $350 used 40 gigabite PlayStation 3 (PS3)?

I bought an xBox 360 in March of 2007. In May of 2007 I got the "Red Ring of Death" (3 flashing red lights). After a month and a half, I got my xBox back. In May of 2008, I had to send my 360 to be worked on again due to problems that had supposedly been "fixed" the last time (keep in mind I never leave my 360 running for long periods of time and NEVER while unattended). The FedEx guy told me that he sees roughly 10-20 xBox 360's per week and that I should just give in and get a PS3. At first, I was in no way willing to betray my current entertainment provider (I had a PS1 and a PS2 which were both sold for an original xBox which was sold to buy the 360). However, when I went to my local game store and found a used 40 gig PS3 for only $350 my opinion started to change. I'm now seriously considering the PS3 but I want to make the most informed decision I can. I've already lost over 2 months of gameplay to poor designs by Microsoft. PLEASE HELP ME DECIDE WHAT TO DO!

1. No sell it for $351
2. Well depend's the 360 has a better online service (Because u pay) but PS3 has online but MABYE might not be as good as LIVE that's if you have it. The 360 has WAY better game's I mean really come on alot better game's... PS3 has good games to really depend's on what type's you like the PS3 has better hardware overall but it I think really come's down to the online service and game's... Just to let you know I've had a 360 since the first day It FINNALY died last Febuary
3. I seriously recomend you trade it in. Just think where your going to be when your 360's warranty is gone.. Only reason why I have a 360 is because I got a free one with the ''red ring of death''. The stupid idiot didnt check the warranty... pathetic.
4. Sell it. Face it, Miscrosoft sucks and Sony is kicking its @$$. Honestly, youll be in much better luck with a PS3. Those are good quality. I dont think mine has ever EVER given me problems, and i got it when Call of Duty 4 came out. Long time ago, eh? back in like November. Anyway, yes, sell it. I ended up selling mine after having it for like 3 months. Goodbye, XBOX live! :[ i loved it! and ill miss halo 3 extremely, but sell it. Youll end up spending less on it, and you will be satisfied. :] jasmine!
5. well i have a ps3, i never leave it running for long periods of time either. it runs like heaven. the blu ray player is great. mine is the 60 gb model. i dont have high speed to play online =( but, i mean alot of 360 are crashing like crazy now, and you can get the mgs4/ps3/80 gb for a great price at gamestop. i HIGHLY recommend you go and get the ps3 you want.
