I would say ban for spam but unless you had this planned for 7 years and 14k posts, thanks for the links

I did this during their last sale and basically upgraded from a jet-engine-loud 360 that was almost out of warranty to an ultraquiet Jasper with new warranty for about $10. If I had thought to buy a Dell GC off of eBay, I probably could have even come out with a profit.

I don't think Dell needs to go around spamming messageboards, lol.

FYI the xbox 360 linked to costs 40 bucks more and doesn't come with Endwar as an extra game, on Amazon.

I already have a 60GB PS3 and a Wii. I basically never use the Wii, and would probably sell it if I weren't so lazy.

I picked up a 360 Arcade after confirming that Jasper systems are in the wild. I specifically found many forum citations on recent Dell-ordered Arcades being Jaspers, while Premium results seemed to be mixed. If I pick up a 60GB HDD starter kit with a headset I'll be in for about the same amount as a Premium, but I'm more worried about higher presumed reliability and lower power consumption than the bundled games offered by either SKU.

Astro, the Dell link for the 60 gig 360's say they are NEW, and I haven't seen Endwar offered before. I was assuming that would mean they were newer chipped machines. Too big an assumption?
