Well - it IS a special drive (it's a laptop drive, not a 3 1/2") but I agree: even with packaging it seems lot. The word is that they're also locking down on accessories so I wouldn't expect to see a compatible third-party drive either. (Although it better not mean that Logitech can't make controllers any longer...) That's, I guess, one reason that the $400 package is probably more attractive. According to MS prices you're getting like $300 of extras. ;^) Jim Davis ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~| Find out how CFTicket can increase your company's customer support efficiency by 100% http://www.houseoffusion.com/banners/view.cfm?bannerid=49 Message: http://www.houseoffusion.com/lists.cfm/link=i:5:170485 Archives: http://www.houseoffusion.com/cf_lists/threads.cfm/5 Subscription: http://www.houseoffusion.com/lists.cfm/link=s:5 Unsubscribe: http://www.houseoffusion.com/cf_lists/unsubscribe.cfm?user=89.70.5 Donations & Support: http://www.houseoffusion.com/tiny.cfm/54
