Or 1 elite 399$ and 1 repair charge 140$ Is this cheaper? Seems to me the only reason for making the tech cheaper, is to make the pill that much easier to swallow next time round. This console isn't a ten year or five year machine, it's a play it till it breaks console. Don't get me wrong I love it. But I also hate it. Let's face it with all the hardware problems the 360 is having I'm betting Microsoft is wishing it was someone elses problem. Here's a good question, how many of the consoles sold are repeat buyers? I don't know bout you but I'd only like to buy it once. Seems to me the xbox is getting cheaper on our dime, not theirs. Microsoft wasn't kidding when they said they have a ten to fifteen year plan. 5 years to release it and 10 to fix it.]]> Tue, 28 Oct 2008 16:22:48 -0400 As far as I can tell 2 Elites purchased is approx 700$, is this cheaper?
