I think the Elite can't get it , it has a certain chip in it.
But anyway , don't let it get TOO hot , i've had mine upright for ages and its never bust :)
The "Red Rings of Death" is caused by hardware failure primarily due to overheating.
yeh theres VERY few cases of the red ring of death on the elite. but the ones that have had problems is just the power supply (the little box) or the plug itself.
my elite got rrod, but after a few hours it worked again.
it got too hot tho, i had mates round, we all slept in living room, and the xbox was on a quilt, so it got really hot.
RRD. *Shiver*
Elites hardly ever get them.
But take precautions :)

Not long until I'll be getting it :)
Won't be purchasing any games just yet though, 'cus I have a budget lmao. Unless anyone can find some cheap packages on amazon, play or pc world or currys or w.e :)
Had mine for 2 and a half years now I think, and never once got rrod.
