MS' method of repair is basically resolding the VPU back onto the warped board, adding washers to the X-Clamp below it and boxing it back up.
I have the 360 Elite, that includes the raised heat-sink, and the fan turns on as soon as you power it up. It appears to be running cooler than my PS3, so hopefully I'll never encounter the RROD.
I highly recommend you leave at least a foot of air-space above your 360 and 4 inches of space on the sides. I've heard that the power supply shouldn't be allowed to lay on carpet either.
