I can not find the link, but had a video demo of someone turning the xbox
360 on its side and back again with the Quake 2 bonus CD in, he showed the
disk before and after and it had a large circular score in it. Can't find
the link, but am sure someone will post it.

I just don't move the box at all, best way. Mines standing up.
