Uh.. go do some reasearch. Microsoft themselves says ~40%. Most people thing it's higher.

Oh and don't give me that not enough ventilation thing, I don't use it much and it's not in an enclosed area.

I've honestly never personaly met anyone that has had a rrod problem. I've had mine for over a year and I leave it on over the weekend all weekend. Same thing with most of the people I know. I'm not say the problem doesn't exist, but >50%? Come on. I still haven't seen Microsoft say ~40%.

By all means...if you like Sony and all their Rootkit Malware DRM ways then get a PS3.

Ok, did a little research. I hav eto say agian, you are wrong. Seems like the % is more around 16%. It's over a 6 to 10 month time table, but I doubt it will go up 34% more. If the rrod problem was ~50% I don't think the 360 would still be selling like it is.

hmm been tempted, but considering that i dont play games, i should probably wait on this one... hdmi out is a plus though, netflix (average) Blu-ray wins this round

#5, your statement doesn't make sense. MS and Sony both lose money on the consoles which they expect to make up with software sales. So by having people buy multiple 360s they would lose more money.

Nothing great here, and who decided to include Kungfu panda in the bundle?

Its a great deal unless ya live where they add sales tax...then its cut in half on the savings.

I don't think these are the new jasper revision of the 360 that use the new 65nm chip. I'd wait for those instead as the Jasper redesign produces less heat

it would be good if they dont charge tax on it. but, they do that so they can compensate for their discount. =/

Hmm, #17, lets see...for NO additional charge you can stream as many 720p movies as you want per month...PS3 is good, but only for a Blu Ray player at the moment...
