If I was you, I'd wait for the 360 Elite to come out, it's got a bigger hard drive and HDMI connections. I think it should be out sept time, not sure. Stu Staples would be the one to ask.

I just bought the elite last weekend. :D:D

When I was looking into it, I was told it is fine to buy second hand ones.

Do not buy the core package as it is basically crap. (again so I was told) You would still need to get a storage device to save any games etc.

The premium or Elite packages are the way to go. If you are using an HD telly I would say get the Elite as it has the HDMI connections etc.

I bought the Elite with Forza 2 included for a penny shy of
