only if you buy the optional hdd apparently..

ohh, i see, ah well better than nothing i suppose

I *think* that it comes with a 20Gb HDD, you can buy bigger versions though.

They are releasing a cheaper version without the HDD but standard is the 20gb removable.

hmm i see well i think ill upgrade to an 80gb

the backward compatability would be another good thing for the XBOX 360

shaping up like its gonna be a VERY nice machine!
