NOTE: This appears to be the old style Xbox 360 and not the updated Pro version by the looks of it. Thus not including HDMI, a quieter fan, lower power consumtion or any other enhancements on the latest version.
I would say steer clear and get a newer, more reliable, Xbox for a little less else where - the new Xbox's are less likely to break within 2 years so the warrenty does not necessarily help. |

| From what i know, you get a 1 year warranty as standard which covers anything (e.g. the disk drive breaks). You also get another 2 years on top of that covering RROD. |

This is confusing. After some googling it looks like the 'Pro' is the replacement for the 'Premium' but the 'Premium' was supposedly getting HDMI last year according to Gizmdo http://uk.gizmodo.com/2007/08/10/xbox_360_premium_gets_hdmi.html
Also if you read the description in my original post it does say that the Premium has HD digital and standard audio visual outputs.
If it outputs digitally doesn't that mean it has HDMI?

I was sure the cheaper Arcade model had HDMI although you have to purchase the cable seperately. |
