play.com were doing a deal consisting of the premium console and GTA IV for £200 but they took it off a few days ago 
Call them to see if they will put it back on

So hes thinking of wrapping it in a towel with a dvd in, to "kill" it so the console over heats and the 3 red lights go on and get microsoft to replace it.

Bill Gates is computer illiterate tbh.. only explanation for windows.
Im thinking about getting a 360 too, cant seem to find a nice bundle deal to get though. Would have snapped up the play bundle with GTA4 tbh but never saw it

Do they not store data to an SD card aswell as the hdd?
So you could just use the SD card foe the little games u play in your room & the HDD for most of the game playing in the lounge? Or is the SD card slot next to useless?

Not to sure, only play it maximum of 3times a week.
And only play about 4-6games ever on it.

could you not buy an arcade 360 and move the hard disk from your original 360 between the two consoles, then you'll get your saved games and live on the two?

Aswell just buying the extra cables to plug into the 2 TVs and lugging the box between them that way i reckon, saves you £160 too.
