[quote name='zewone']Elites are for suckers.[/QUOTE]
Hey, now! For only $80 (at the time - the $100 difference now may make it less worthwhile) I got HDMI, an HDMI cable, the extra 100GB of space, and the chance that the system was at least a bit more reliable and/or quieter (jury still out on those aspects with respect to the launch Elite's).
Considering that I paid for the whole thing with flipped Gamecrazy credit, it only cost me about $200 in real money to buy the Elite at the $480 price point.
The HD alone has been well worth it as I only have about 55GB free as of now. Sure, I *could* delete some demos and videos, but, you know what, I don't *have* to :lol:.
Scrubsy - the question is, is that BenQ really any (or much) quieter? I've heard conflicting reports on that.
