Well I purchased the Elite just now!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! WOOOHOOOOO!!!!!!!

I went to Gamestop and exchanged it for the Elite.

This how the process went:

Xbox 360 Pro was $350 so I recently bought Gears of War so I exchanged that for the $50 and all I had left was to pay $50 from my pocket and I got the Elite and I pre-ordered Halo 3. So I'm still a Xbox 360 owner but now a Elite owner!!!!!

All this within 2 hours. Rather than with Microsoft. O_O

Check the manufacture date on your Elite. Also, would you happen to know the manufacture date on your old 360? Surprising it died so quickly, unless it was an old model.

Okay to Soriku: Hell YEAH!!!

And to DD: My old 360 date was 9/9/06, New 360 Elite date 6/25/07

Cool, but couldn't you just get the 120gb hard drive?

Why not wait for the version that doesn't suffer from the Red Rings of Death, and has the quieter DVD drive? Seems like a weird time to buy a 360, even though it's having some of its best sales in ages.

Leo-j the Elite comes with the 120 GB HDD....duh

Yea I know, but soriku cleared it all up for me, have a blast of fun iight!!

 The Elite has the new heatsink for the GPU, 120 GB HDD, quite DVD drive 

lol, that was fast. Congratulations, I envy you to some extent :(

 Why?? Because I should of got a Wii?? :P
