...
you wont find these on the website until friday am bundle starts then
That's the renamed "Pro" version, not Premium. I think that means HDMI+better HSF+quieter drive like the Elite version (unless Woolies have got their wires crossed). If so then it'll be an expensive weekend for me!
Am I going to have any problems setting up my 360 with the 360 wifi adaptor and my airport express (already have my Wii and Apple tv on it). Can you stream stuff to the 360 from my mac hard drive like you can with windows ?

I had no problem getting the wifi going - one of the easiest things to get going IMHO. Certainly significantly easier than getting a mac on a wifi connection.
And I get a months free gold live membership ? Do all games get demos to try before you buy and can I then buy them from live or are we talking going to shops to buy ?

Is this a first come first served thing, or is there someway to reserve a pack? Quite tempted by this.
There's a lot of demos you can download for full games that you have to buy in shops (Like PGR3). Xbox live arcade games all come available as demos and you can buy them online (Like Space Giraffe)
Yes. You get a free month's gold membership but that's only needed if you want to play multiplayer online. To download demos and buy XBLA games you just need silver and that's free.

The Xbox Live Arcade releases (such as Space Giraffe) all have demos, and you can then buy them from Live with MS Points. Retail games (such as Bioshock) generally have demos on Live, although not always, and yes you have to buy them from a shop (or rent/borrow them).
Edit: posted at exactly the same moment as HGFB, hence a similar answer.

So as my mate is getting one tomorrow to play co-op we would both need Gold ?
Deckard, why are you buying a console that you *know* is going to crap out on you at some point in the future? Surely you can wait until the new version with the more reliable chipset is released? All you're doing here is helping MS clear unwanted inventory of faulty hardware.
I wont say if it craps out - When it craps out I will get a new chipset one courtesy of MS so not that bothered about the current model's flaws. Also fairly desperate for some twitch action as top dog on Charlie's Bullet Candy and fancy some Robotron, GW and SG action
