Not being a console gamer myself, I'm a little curious about how long the average console gamer gets out of their consoles until the CPU melts the socket and falls off the circuit board these days and needs to go buy a new one? I haven't kept track for a couple of years so my info is outdated.

They don't. The named it Xbox One and didn't see it being called Xbone. But someone discovered the funnier name and now here we are.
