I think as long as you keep it in a well vented area. Dust won't be able to settle down anyways. I guess the only time there is a chance for dust to settle is when the 360 is off and there is no airflow unless the area around it is new a window/vent or something like that.

Yeah that makes sense. Also, that's been the best at making the point about dust on this thread. Job well done.

My PS2 died due to filling up with dust. The dust clogged up the innerds of the console and it wouldnt turn on.

I was thinking of actually buying a small fan to keep next to the 360. Probably keep it on when I'm done playing for a little after just to cool it. Maybe put a towel or a bag or something over it to keep the dust out if I notice a large amount of dust gathering. Otherwise I wouldn't worry about it.

I think the permium xbox should have been a different color other than white, like maybe 2 color console or something. Why white? It's such a boring color.

lol, i quite like the 360 in white. It looks better in my setup then a black 360 would. A black one wouldnt look bad, it just looks better in white.

I hate it in white. I'd prefer it in black. If i had waited, i could have got a black one. No way i'll ever buy a black one since i already have a360, although i could always spray paint mine.

I'm looking for a 360 and I think I'm settled on the Elite. I think the 120gb more then overs it, but Walmart has the Elite with 2 Controllers, 2 games, and a Wireless headset for $550... which I think is perfect.

What do you guys think? Maybe just try to find the Elite without the bundle? I think the Elite goes for $450

Depends on how much you want to spend. I'd get the Elite bundle, but if you are hard pressed for money.

Also. If you are in the USA. You can try: www.target.com they are selling the hoilday elite bundle for 449, you get 1 controller, and 2 games with it,curerntly, out o stock but they might have some deals you might like...iother tha that one.
