Re: xbox 360 core system for $100 on amazon
Personally, I think this is a better option for anyone who'd want a premium system (component, HD, and wireless)
»[HOT Deal] Xbox Premium $299 A/R, Core $199 A/R at Microcenter |

Brooklyn, NY | but it is more fun to line up with 10,000 other people ready to stress test amazon web servers, then be grouchy all the way through thanksgiving dinner because you didn't make it. |

Mesquite, TX | That is certainly looking at the bright side. 
That Microcenter deal is good through December 5, so it works out as a perfect backup plan (assuming stock is sufficient). |

Algonquin, IL | yeah, but to me I'd rather not play the waiting game (especially since the story got farked the other day) and the go around buying 3 other peripherals just to get it working on my tv (damn HD) |

I have a feeling that when the feces hits the fan at 11am Pacific when I click to buy the $100 Xbox that I will be unsuccessful due to extreme competition. There is a Micro Center 30 minutes from my house who has confirmed that they have an ample supply.
When I bought 2 of my sons an Xbox several years ago, there were different versions available. Earlier version had DVD drives that were problematic and there were also issues with power supplies. The later the version you got, the less problems you were likely to incur. With the Xbox 360 are there different versions on the market which one should avoid?

3 edits | I never expected to get one BUT to not even be able to move off a page gives you no hope at all.
I did get one of the bikes though, i have been waiting to checkout for almost 10 mins now...
UPDATE: It seems that my code for the bike was stolen and redeemed before I could check out. Geeze people are crazy! |
