Comment by: ZippyDSM (Feb 22, 2007 06:59) the 360 is getting a new revision so the older versions are kinda pointless when 10-30% are broken.... |
Comment by: hughjars (Feb 22, 2007 08:39) I keep seeing the core unit is either going or being cut in price by a very large margin, the current premium will become priced around where the core is right not and the 'media version' is due around May 1st with 120gb HDD, the cool 65nm processor, the quiet drive and HDMI (which I couln't really care less about) at a price around where the current premium is.....and it'll be black.
