I have not purchased the 360 yet but a few of buddies have them. Very nice! You really need to upgrade the fan as they put out some serious heat. I am sticking with my orignial X-Box for now.

No 360, but I still have my regular Xbox. I am going to wait til the price comes down before I buy one.

got one for the stepsons, last Christmas, man were they happy! & still are, the younger one, 11 yrs is on it all the time, his 16 y old brother is less frequently on it, as he has a gaming pc that I built for him. I will second the need for better cooling, I got the snap on the back one with 3 small fans and it seems to be a lot mre stable, less prone to freeze. The one thing they could build a lot better is the dang microphone / earpiece, they break about one a month....... luckily best buy has a pretty good replacemnet policy & I keep the receipt handy.

I have one, or should I say my kids do. Pretty nice set up. Upgraded from the PS2. Did have the screen freeze and failure a couple months ago. Called microsoft tech support and my warranty had expired the day before. I said great just my luck. The tech asked if I worked the day before, I said well.....uh....sure. He said good enough for me we will cover it . Fixed and shipped on their dime. I immediately purchased the 3yr extended warranty. Cheap insurance in my opinion.

I got tired of paying $60 for a new game. Now I rent 3 for about $18 a month.
I'm CTD HOBIE on live. Just silver for now. Might go gold soon.
It would be awesome if some would come out with a truck and tractor pulling game, but probably wont happen for a long time if at all.

I can't use consoles... The little controllers always give me fits.

I can use a WASD-mouse configuration pretty well, though.

When I am online my gamer tag is Diesel Thunder.

Would be nice if they have more truck games.
