When the Elite was first released it had more value than the Pro since it had a 120GB HDD vs a 20GB and it was the only model with an HDMI output.

What is the point of MS continuing with the XBox 360 Elite?  It costs $100 more than a Pro and the only differences I can see are that it's black, has a 60GB larger HDD and comes with an HDMI cable.  The colour is personal choice and an HDMI cable can be purchased for under $10-$20 if you avoid "namebrands".  Is the larger HDD really worth the extra $80-$90 more?  Unless you need the space right away I would wait a year or two and MS will probably release a 250GB HDD for the cost of the 120GB now (although that still is overpriced).  Am I missing some additional differences or is MS just doing a cash grab on unknowing customers and those who value the elite status of the black console?

 

Twice the hard drive space, the HDMI output comes with it, black color preferance, and you have a choice of the bundle with two games (Lego Indiana and Kung Fu Panda). Man, Microsoft makes some shitty bundles. Good god (LOL).
