Just get a PS3 if you want this feature, or a wii. Just kidding though. But really this doesn't look right, it looks like it will scratch the disc while sliding in. Oh also I have all systems and like them all and I am not a fanboy. Im starting to hate wii now though, what with the no good games and stuff.

Man that is something wicked. I wish I had that level of innovative-ness.
Now if only my PS3 could do that... oh, wait.

How about, getting off of this site, as none of your comments are even REMOTELY positive towards the console that it revolves around.

I just wish Micro would start selling new models like this now :( I'm getting fed up of the disk tray already.

Am I the only one who prefers disc trays to slot loading?

Hell no! I hate the slot loaders as well.
To behonest, it's one of the main reasons I didn't choose the PS3 as my first Blu-ray player.
I just don't trust them, and I think they encourage fingerprints.

awesome mod.....but I wouldn't pay retail for a mod that won't sit up right and doesn't have HDMI.

I wonder if MS will release slot loaded 360's along with the Jasper chipset. Or is jasper already out in the world?

Jasper is already out in the wild - features 60nm CPU, 60nm GPU, & 256mb internal flash memory usable how you wish (instead of the normal 16mb, usable only by the system for dash updates; excludes avatars).

Heres the reason for withdrawal: "Some idiot, don't know who yet, pulled it because of copyright infringement. The drive is completely stock in that aspect, no flashed FW at all. So either eBay has a complete retard that goes over those things or someone sent them an e-mail crying that it was modified when it's not, so they pulled a perfectly legal auction. I've already e-mailed them back and will have to see where this goes.
My apologies to anyone that bid on the thing and I'm working on getting this resolved or it'll just go back up for auction at a more respectable place that knows what they're doing."

I tried to sell some rare VHS tapes at one point on eBay. I was trying to sweeten the deal with a DVDR copy of the tape included with it. As far as I know, it's legal to sell a DVD copy WITH the original VHS tape. eBay pulled most of the listings and threatened me with copyright infringement.
I also listed a Sega Saturn console that I had added a switch to for playing Japanese games. They pulled that one too, just because I used the phrase "import games". I try to be honest in my auctions, but always get penalized.
When it comes to these things, they just pull them if they're the least bit suspicious. Not worth their time to investigate and have a lawyer look it over.
The irony is there are 1,000,000,000,000 illegal Hong Kong copies of Disney movies on there. Look up any out of print Disney movie and you will see 98% obviously pirated copies. I have never figured out why eBay doesn't seem to care in the slightest about these.

Slot loading or tray, how about a console that takes more than one disc at at a time? There are in dash car stereos smaller than the Wii that will hold multiple discs. Wouldn't it be great to have a console that held 3 game discs? I'd say that's usually how many games people have in their normal rotation.

I'd rather have an illegal way to copy 3 game discs to the hard drive and never put them in again.
