Is the only difference that the Elite had 120 GB while the regular has only 60GB??

(beside the fact that the Elite is black, of course)

Only other difference these days is that it has an HDMI cable included in the box, unlike the other versions (unless that's changed since I last checked).

Dunno I thought there was still a chance you can RROD on normal ones whereas the Elites very rarely if ever fail.

The bigger harddrive is a godsend for installing all your games to which makes the thing slightly less noisy than a truck going by. Honestly to god I'd buy a new X-Box for over 100 quid more than I paid for my my new one if they made it quiet and added a sleep function. Use it to stream all my downloads from the pc onto the tele and often fall asleep watching some nonsense only to wake up at some stage duing the night to hear the fan going mental as always.

Regular 360s should all be running the newer, cooler hardware now.
