  1. 1. Xbox 360 console built on new processor, this runs much cooler, quicker than the standard processor for the Xbox 360 premium, which are to this day prone to overheating known as the ring of fire Or in other words Hardware failure meaning they have to be sent back to Microsoft for repairs, although Premium 360s built end of 2007 onwards have been built using newer 60/65nm processor chipset.2. Wireless Controller included, exactly the same as whats included with the ?250 Premium package.3. Standard AV cable, exactly the same as whats included with the ?250 Premium package.4. 256MB Memory Unit, might not be the same as the 20GB HDD included with the Premium bundle, but the 20GB HDD can easily be purchased off ebay for ?30, so no huge cost there.5. 5 Free live arcade titles, whereas the Premium bundle has no included games.6. THIS ARCADE 360 COMES WITH HDMI OUTPUT, Premium bundle has standard Hd/av component.So if your unsure as to wether or not this is a good package, consider this for ?190 you get a much more effecient 360 with games, memory, and even HDMI, whereas for a ?250 premium bundle you only get 20gb hdd, overheating processor, and a headset.In my situation, i used to have a Premium bunde but sold it, so im now looking to buy an XBOX 360 again. I already have my headset and 20GB HDD from my old system, so for 190 quid im getting brand new xbox with hdmi and better processor, its such a good deal! The only people who complain about this deal point out the fact that it doesn't have backward compatibility with original xbox titles, FYI this is a next gen console, if you wanna play old naff xbox games, go buy a bloody xbox. But in actual fact you can download an update from Xbox live to enable backward compatibility with the Arcade Version, so there.This console is just as good as the more expensive console bundles, so if your not sure, ?190 Arcade vs ?250 Premium, this is a much better deal.Recommended Accessories:1. HDMI Cable (?10 Ebay).2. Wireless Adapter (?50 Brand New, although a standard ?5 ethernet cable works just as fine for IConnection to the Internet aka Xbox Live).3. 20Gb HDD (?25-?35 Ebay).4. Headset for online gaming (Only realistically necessary if you buy the above upgrades for online gaming, ?10 Ebay).Some of you might point out that if you were to buy all these upgrades, you would be spending just as much as if you bought a Premium bundle, which is true however you would then have a premium bundle BUT with HDMI output and a more effecient processor less prone to overheating, so it makes sense to buy this console wether or not you plan on buying the upgrades mentioned above.


  2. Well I have three monitor that are all 19" and therefore I have 2 good graphics cards to power them... Well they were good when I bought them a year ago and tey work for me fine i'd tell you what it was called but I cant remember to be honest so never mind. I think the radion new 1's although I hardly ever use all three but I usuallly use one for music and onefor whatever else i'm doing so... I use it a TV lol


  3. Using mac osx was a terrible expeience, I'm good with a computer but the operating system just makes everything seem so hard and it looks terrible... Windows is better dispite it's creator companies many flaws. I want to try vista t o see if it's any good but my impressionis that its for people who can hardly use a pc and is all 'babyfied' but some features seem good like using a flash memory stick as extra ram that my friend talked about


  4. The problem is if you are getting another laptop there not like desktops computers. The parts are specific and thats why laptop modifications can be very expensive... As for wether or not the hard drive from your laptop would work in a computer depends on the part itself


  5. Science... I'd rather base my knowledge to something with some sort of evidence rather than something created as wishful thinking. The truth is the one thing man Is scared about most is death, religion was created to ease peoples minds that there is more out there and however uch i'd like to I am unable to believe in a 'higher being' or the afterlife. Of course I am a strong Athiest and do not wish to offend. But so many things in history we believe are done for one reason aren't... Just watch QI at any time. I do not wish to offend anyone this is just my view although bias.


  6. Whoo... look like minded. Yes the Wii is childish, Wii sports is good but thats were the list of decent games ends. As for the PS3 I will get one when there are more titles and the price comes down. But if a new XBOX console comes out in the next three years I would probably get that over the ps3 (if by that time I didn't have one. I dislike Microsoft on the whole but I like there products.


  7. Which do you preferXBOX 360PS3Wiipersonally for the moment I'd say the XBOX 360 ... It has plenty of games and a strong online; I know you have to pay however, ?40 a year for better servers and virus protection... then again here I am trying to get out of paying out of hosting so... however whilst the PS3 is as good if not better there just aren't as many good games and HD - Blueray... barely any difference (and cirtainly not noticable difference. The wii meanwhile remains the most boring waste of money console I have ever seen.
