Xbox Live Labs, test and you get some freebies
Xbox Live Labs is a process that will run a few tests on your system to help improve the performance of Xbox Live. It’s totally optional and if you participate in it then you won’t be able to play games or watch movies for the duration of the test BUT you will unlock some Achievements and get some cool little gifts for each stage you complete.

The Xbox LIVE Labs testing application is currently available in the US only.
There are a total of three Avatar items and three zero point achievements that you can earn for each completed test, including a lab coat, brain helmet, and crazy mad scientist hair!
Xbox LIVE Labs runs from March 10-27 and is open to all Xbox LIVE members living in the United States. Got test dummy go!

Hey it’s worth it. Plus you don’t have to leave your xbox running for 6 hours straight. Only the first 30 minutes you have to endure. The rest is cumulative time. So if you want to leave it on for an hour one time and an hour the next you can.
