The system and regular updates takes a few gigs from the hard drive. Usually in any hard drive, it's never exactly the number they promise. It's always a bit less.

Yup, I wouldn't be so bitter about using 20 GB if the system it's self doesn't take that much space up. I can only install two games at a time if I'm lucky.

Well even in PC's if they say 200gb harddrive you won't get 200gb cause of system settings same with the Xbox

You want to be thankful you didn't get an Elite with a "120GB HD"
