ST knows all. Is it possible to get the 4gb Xbox and then buy a cheap external hard drive? Or do you need the authentic Xbox external hard drive? - James Bond (aka Igor) May 29, 12:59 17
- if you check woot deals, periodically they will have good deals on official 360 HDD. Last time I saw one for like $70. -- nm - sycor May 29, 14:11 1
  - Usually for the old systems, though. -- nm - Spawn May 29, 14:48
- I see, thanks all. So that buy a $699 computer and get a free Xbox deal is actually kind of crappy. -- nm - James Bond (aka Igor) May 29, 13:06 2
  - Caveat. It's only *select* computers from each retailer, with specific configurations. You can bet you can do better without the Xbox deal. - Mop May 29, 13:49
  - not if you have to buy the $699 computer in any event -- nm - moles May 29, 13:07
- You need the official xbox hard drive. You can use an external for movies, pics and the like but you won't be able to save - Krusty May 29, 13:03
- I bought a regular internal laptop HD (only some models work), then I flashed it with a simple app. - Guigue May 29, 13:01 9
  - Here are the instructions -- (link) - Guigue May 29, 13:05 3
    - Here's the case -- (link) - Guigue May 29, 13:07
    - Thanks, I wonder if that works with an external. -- nm - James Bond (aka Igor) May 29, 13:07 1
      - No, it has to be a specific model of internal HD from WD I believe - Guigue May 29, 13:08
  - It works on Live, it's seen as a authentic HD, and it's something that has been done for a few years and MS hasn't done anything about it -- nm - Guigue May 29, 13:02 4
    - You can save games to it and play games off it on the 360? - Krusty May 29, 13:05 3
      - Yup. People have been doing it since the early models. Basically you're buying the same HD MS use, and put the same firmware on it - Guigue May 29, 13:09 2
        
        I really need more storage and I'm not willing to pay the ridiculous price M$ asks but I'm paranoid - Krusty May 29, 13:11 1
        
        If they ban you, they lose your money. It's not wise - Guigue May 29, 13:12
- You do need an authentic one if you want to use XBox Live. A 250 GB is about $90. I recently went this route myself. -- nm - David May 29, 13:00

Question for Kim or anyone who has had gall bladder surgery - ty97 May 29, 12:46 17
- my GB came out almost a decade ago and I remember none what you are going thru. I say call the doctor and discuss it -- nm - peglegpete May 29, 13:39
- The attack-y sort of pain associated with the gallbladder was gone right away. The pain from the surgery was with me for a week. - Kim Pine May 29, 13:24
- your other organs are protesting the rough treatment "OMG they killed kenny!" give'm time to get over it, find some closure or scar tissue -- nm - zeitgeist May 29, 12:53
- I think that your situation has created side issues that are ramping up the pain. - David May 29, 12:49 4
  - I agree with this. -- nm - loosilu May 29, 12:53
  - Thanks. The pain I had before (the attack-type pain) is certainly (and thankfully) gone. I could never get relief from that before - ty97 May 29, 12:53 2
    - might want want to call the doc tomorrow, just to ease your anxiety. -- nm - loosilu May 29, 12:54 1
      - I'm not really anxious that there's trouble, since he just saw me yesterday and no one seems worried about me. - ty97 May 29, 12:59
- Mine was appendix and spleen, so not the same, but everyone is different. - Spawn May 29, 12:48 8
  - The other thing about pain tolerance is that each situation is different. - David May 29, 12:53 7
    - I did get the feel that my GI at home might have thought I was a bit of a hypochondriac - ty97 May 29, 13:02 5
      - When you get that reaction, keep this in mind. The doctor sees this sort of thing all the time. It's a first for you. - David May 29, 13:08 4
        
        I keep trying to remind myself of this - gastro issues, gb pain, etc, is not unusual for a GI doctor to see. - ty97 May 29, 13:15 3
        
        With regards to the first sentence of your IM... - David May 29, 13:24 2
        
        Yeah, I can understand your reaction. - ty97 May 29, 13:30 1
        
        I talked here about my friend Bruce that passed away due to cancer. - Spawn May 29, 15:01
    - re your IM: jesus, what an ordeal. to a MUCH lesser extent I had a similar thing with my GI issues. - loosilu May 29, 12:56
Details on race spoilers please? (stupid black out) -- nm - Spawn May 29, 12:44 5

  - That was straight bait! You're on super secret double probation now, mister! -- nm - Mop May 29, 17:24
  - major ongoing spoilers - Beaker May 29, 13:16
- whitey is still in power -- nm - moles May 29, 12:46 1

ML, as a Sox fan, I do too. - spamlet May 29, 12:41
