After i replace my smartphone with a iPhone. Upgrade my MS wifi router with an Airport. And lastly get an apple tatoo on my small bicep and place an apple sticker on my car.

On a side note im just waiting for the PC in the Apple commercials to kick the shit out of that dude.

Damn, I think you win...

$50 less than a new xbox 360?

So it's $200 for a new xbox but the hard drive will cost you extra. Whats the cheapest HDD available for it then?

Depends on whether you want to pay full MSRP or do some value shopping... Value shopping I've seen the 120 go for $99.

and value shopping I've seen the 20gb HDD for $40

[ivan872007]

lol value shopping. 120 gb hdd for 100 dollars and 20gb hdd for 40 bucks.

Sweet. With a 199 price for arcade the 360 will bring in some good numbers this fall

[hdinred]

Looks like Amazon isn't offering the 20 GB any longer, and one of their partners is offering it for $259 (Link). I wonder what other retailers will do with any remaining 20 GB units.

[balpho]

they'll prolly clearance em out. Still I'd go to sites like cheapassgamer and find refurb or used 20gb HDD's for only $40. It's pretty easy and I'm sure that's cheaper then what stores will clearance em out at

well I suppose you're welcome to pay full retail if you really want to... I mean it's your money, if you want to throw it away be my guest

I will be picking up two 60 GB 360's and one Arcade for Christmas presents for the nephews and cousins this month.

You are one hell of an awesome uncle/cousin!

I don't know if it's already been said but you can essentially get an "Elite" for $50 cheaper with this new pricing structure. Arcade $199 + 120bg HD $150 = $349, $50 less than the elite. Plus you get 5 arcade games and a $50 memory card.

That's if you pay full retail, you can get an "elite" even cheaper if you shop around. So basically you're paying the extra $50 for the black case.

And that's assuming you need 120gb. When they release the 60gb by itself, it's supposed to come w/ like 3 months of LIVE service, along w/ a headset and some other bonuses at $99. So you can get a lil bit better then the Pro system by getting that along w/ an Arcade model for the pre-packaged Pro price

I picked up a 20GB for the bedroom and an Arcade for my Sister and her new Husband as a wedding gift. Best Buy and M$ loves me today!
