The beveled top makes things not sit well on top of it. It's just a poor design all around IMO.
A smaller, lighter X-box will be tempting when Halo 2 comes out.

wants to watch TV. Used my 10% off at Best Buy a few weekends ago and took the plunge. probably should have waited for the E3 price drop, but what the heck.

I'm going to hold of unti PS3 comes out... I got my PS2 at launch and it has a space for the hard drive. The HD must have a connection of the Network Adapter...
I'm curious, if the 'old' model of PS2 will be able to upgrade the dvd software to progressive scan...??
