Camp over night. That's what I'm doing. And, bring a buddy or two, warm clothes, lawn chairs, and your favorite beverages. It will be a long night...but, well worth it!

That kind of sucks but I guess I have no choice. I'll bring a bottle of Morgans and one of my *****es...then I'll be all set. I don't think that the line will be too big so I can probably go early in the morning.

Lordy4life...well, consider this...I'm showing up at 9:00pm November 14th...I will undoubtably be the first, if not, one of the first people in line. I plan on bringing a couple Red Bulls and some PowerAid, a couple lawn chairs for my buddy and me, and smoke an entire pack of cigies :D

Well i plan on smoking a couple packs if I waited out that long...maybe some ritalin to keep me awake. I have to work the next day so I could never stay up that late and expect to be functioning at work. I live in Newport RI, so I don't think there will be many people waiting outside for the X-Box...I guess I'm taking my chances. Do you know how often that companies will be ordering more? Is it going to be a lot on the 15th and then just some here and there?

Lordy4Life...Microsoft will manufacture and deliver 100,000 XBoxes every single week and they will be distributed around the nation. There's no doubt you will get one...I just want one on the very day it comes out and I want to be able to say that I got my XBox the very day it came out. I have to work the next day, too...9 hour shift! Yes, I'm crazy :D

Yes you are crazy...so you think I'll be able to get one the next week? I want mine right away but I know that probably won't happen, but maybe I'll take a day off from work...thanks man, you are a big help!!

Well, here's my reasoning: I don't think many people are willing to do what I am going to do...but, that's what lawn chairs, a buddy, a couple pack of smokes, and a few Red Bulls can do for ya! hehe :D

As for getting one the next week...I would highly recommend finding out from the Manager of the Electronics store that you are choosing to buy your XBox from when the next shipment will come in...and show up early...very early on that day.......I mean, 4-5 hours early :D

Great idea Scarecrow! That could work!!

Also, LOL, Charles...Yeah...Red Bulls are really small! Maybe a big bottle of PowerAid will do well as an addition! But, seriously, my wife said that she will make some hot cocoa and put it in a hot thermos so we can have that all night.

Hey, if any of you guys do this...make sure you bring a buddy with you! I doubt that anyone else would hold your place in line if you have to run around the building to find a tree to urinate! Though, I figure a good GameCube or PS2 poster would do better than a tree :D
