whatever you do, for the love of god, do not get a first gen system. especially if you are going to get a 360, wait until they put blu ray or hddvd in it...

I won't. Although I did get a first-gen PS2 and it's still going strong.

Just a note, even if they do put HD DVD in it (doubt BluRay since that's a Sony-backed technology), it won't allow devs to make larger games. It'll just mean you can watch movies on HD-DVD.

After my original Xbox purchase on the day of the launch, I have to agree. If you buy it right away, you will always end up paying a higher price for a system that will inevitably be crappier than the cheaper versions everyone else gets six months later.
