If you live in Washington State.. I have an announcement
Tonight at Midnight.. Bill Gates will be at the Best Buy store in Bellevue, WA handing out the first 3 consoles.. Thought I'd let you know.

Where did you hear this from? I would like to see a picture of the security that he will have with him.
The police department will be there.. Not sure of any other security (probably store security).. As to where I heard this, I cannot say. I wasn't even supposed to open my trap, but since I love my FiPG brothers and sisters.. I just couldn't hold back.. If you live in Washington State, come and see for yourself.. This shit ain't no joke.

I agree, kidnap Bill Gates and then sell him on ebay! I bet he would sell for hundreds more than the xbox 360 would.

I just called a couple of local WalMarts - only the Superstores are doing a Midnight sale...the other stores are opening at their normal 7AM. The guy in the electronics department that I spoke to said there are already people waiting in line for his store's 7AM opening.
Good gosh.
I am down with the floogerhorse.

My walmart said they are only getting in 20. I have no idea why. It's a superstore though so I'll be there at 600 riding my green floogerhorse

People are insane. I will probably be like that for the PS3 though, if I am still not broke by then.

right now I live in the middle of nowhere, but my local walmart is only getting 10 360s (8 of the shitty core bundles and only 2 of the premium packs) for their midnight sale tonight. Apparently there are already 3 people on line, so I can't get one of the wireless bundles. I guess I have to go to best buy late tonight for their 9AM opening tomorrow.

Are you just getting them to turn right around and sell them?
What about for everyone else that is purchasing or trying to get more than one, are you getting them to sell them?

LOL. His auction is titled. "GET XBOX360 FROM BILL GATES!!!".
I know why they are only shipping 400K, they want to build a crazy XBOX fever. When people are selling them for $1000 on eBay people will just be like, wow this must be an awesome system. After the new year when they start to restock people will want them just because they knew everyone wanted one...
