Going to look at a Black Knights replacement console case/controller cases.

Also, its better to use plastic dye than spray paint ;)

If this sells for £350 then Im more tempted to buy a PS3 instead. The cheapest PS3 in the UK is selling for £399 or less, with Blu-Ray its even more tempting.
But the Elite has bigger hard drive and a solid online service. :?

The separate hard drive is a joke, its too expensive, if you look online for a equivalent its much cheaper.

Actually no, its doing very well, It not only works in the 360 but also works on any 360 as well as pc use as well so you have a hd player for your pc as well as a result and seems to perform very well from reviews.

HD will win the hd disk war as well becuase it is cheaper now and can get cheaper faster and blue ray is just expensive all round.

He said hard disk, not HD drive ;)

and I agree with both of you atm.

The HDD is too expensive for what it is but there are ways to use a generic HDD instead of a M$ one.

The HD-DVD drive is at a great price point if you want to get into HD Movies without spending $$$ on a player :)
