I ordered the 360 slim to upgrade/replace the 360 Elite in my living room and I have been very please with the product. I upgraded for the additional hard drive space (I download a lot of Rock Band songs and game add on's), plus the reduced noise (I have the external HD-DVD drive still). The transfer kit worked like a charm (I purchased that directly from Microsoft, after reading some on line reviews of the problems with 3rd party kits not working correctly), and within about 35 minutes the transfer from the old hard drive to the new hard drive was completed. It is a very quiet machine, and I do appreciate the additional usb ports in the machine for the rock band mics that I use for parties.
The only issue I had was with my gamer tag. Because I don't really chat on line, i never signed into my Window's live messanger account, and apparently it expired, and the gamer tag is tied to the window messanger and not my email account. After a couple failed attempts on my own on line to fix this problem, I called the Microsoft customer service and after talking to a manager (the first rep didn't know how to fix this, and I greatly appreciate her not wasting my time trying to figure it out on her own, she sent me straight to someonw who did know how to resolve the problem), i was able to transfer over my gamer tag (with the achievement points and more importantly the remaining xbox live points and time left on my yearly membership) to the new 360.
I do have a PS3 that I use mainly as a blu-ray player as I much prefer the xbox gaming system.
I am very pleased with this machine, and am seriously considering upgrading the 360 Elite that I have in the bed room as well.Get more detail about Xbox 360 250GB Elite Console.
