Yes, the new Arcade units come with 512mb even though the box shows 256mb. You'd think Microsoft would want to advertise the extra onboard memory. I'm hoping Microsoft finally go it right with the Jasper units and from what I've seen and heard, they may have.

My Elite had a mild heart attack today.Blacked out during a MW2 firefight with 3 flashing red rings.
Powered down and back up and it came to life. Knowing I was on borrowed time, I made sure to eject my game and pack up the power brick and cables and headed to Gameflop to trade her in while still kicking. I've wanted a Jasper unit for a while,so I flipped the 'ol girl for 70 bucks and traded iNfamous for the PS3 for 20 bucks and got an Arcade unit. Slapped my HDD on and I'm chugging right along. Love the smaller brick and even quieter box.Surprised at the 512mb of onboard memory. |

If it uses your old power supply, then it's a refurb. Also, my old Xbox 360 came back with a Service Date of when it was repaired.

360 just arrived. They sent me a different 360 than the one I sent in. They also sent me a 1 month Live card.
So I got a different refurbished 360 or a new 360? The plate on the back has a "Service Date 2009-08-29". Not a Mfct Date....a service date. |

I better show some restraint considering the graciousness my wife showed with the TV purchase.
