Hope this comes out. Its been a rumor since... well forever really it would seem. The 360 in black does look nice though I have to say. I read some news on engadget that this Aussie one did have an HDMI port but like always they said it was just a rumor. Until this version is for sale or until MS say something about it coming out I won't believe what I read or see.

It may just be a custom one off.

Strip off the case, sand and spray it and your done.

I'm going to mod mine at some point. With better cooling and then I'll finish it in Trans (electric) Blue.

hang on, this was at a trade show?

it's definitely a developer console, then. them's black

I don't think the green lights suite the black console. I would prefer the normal one tbh.

I already have a black front on mine, unfortunately it still looks crap though because you can see the white sides.

All my hifi is black so a vlack one would be great! I don't really like the white, it makes it look so obvious.

doesn't the version 1 have an inch-high 'thing' instead of the hard disk?

[digit]

Quite right it does indeed:

That's just a larger HDD to allow the dev to load more stuff on than the standard 20Gb drive will allow.

You've don't see em at shows so much as the code, if it's running on a devkit, ius normally on the disk.

You tend to see those more at devs offices or private showings as the code is held on a partition of the larger disk with all the various dev tools ect.

iirc, a while back there was a rumour of a larger Xbox 360 HDD on the way as it had been 'seen' at a show, but it was the dev's bigger HDD the guy saw and nothing that was for commercial release.

If they are standard sized hard disks from Notebooks, are they upgradable?
