Its sweet man, You'll love the media streaming Mussa.  I listen to mp3's from my pc all the time.  Definitely give the xbox live trial a chance.  The Elite has a HDMI which is nice.  Here's a link to peoples impressions of the Elite

broke down and bought the xbox 360 premium. couldn't wait for the elite.

forza motorsports 2 - reminded me of the grand turismo type game. pretty tough at first

perfect dark - classic for the xbox w/ great online play. i have alot to learn to compete online.

crackdown - alot like GTA series but more chaotic, its going to take awhile to get used too

overall im pretty impressed with the 360. i played perfect dark online with a friend last night and had a blast. since im a PS2 guy the controllers going to take sometime to get used too. if anyone wants to send a friend request my tag is musshugahh717

Look on ebay, or run a lan line from your router.  I got 50ft of lan line for under 7 bucks.

That good? I'll check it out off your recommendation. Even though I've owned an Xbox for 5 years I have never played a R6 game, what's it comparable too? As far as Clancy's games go I like SC 1 & 3 but wasn't too fond of GRAW.
