What is the difference between xbox 360 arcade and pro?

Q. I need to know the difference between xbox 360 arcade console and pro console. I understand that the pro comes with a hard drive, but I've got that taken care of (old xbox got the ring of death and cannot be repaired). I was wondering if it's still possible to play games online with the arcade version, and still get things like netflix as well.

A. The xbox 360 pro bundle comes with...

20 GB Hard drive
Wireless controller
HD AV cable
Ethernet network cable
Wired XBOX Live headset
White faceplate
XBOX Live Silver service

Its $350.00 mostly because of the hard drive.

The xbox arcade comes with a 360, wired controller, the standard cables,

Microsoft Xbox 360 Arcade includes the following 5 free arcade games on an in package disc:
Feeding Frenzy
Luxor 2
Boom Boom Rocket
Pac-Man Championship Edition
Uno

Is it possible to download Xbox 360 games online, and play them on your Xbox?
Q. Like, for example, through Azureus Vuze I can download torrent videos and play them on my Xbox 360. Can I do the same with games, like Beautiful Katamari?

Also can I do it with non 360 games? Like PS2 games reformatted for Xbox?

A. yes. you have to have a modded xbox 360 and to play the game you need to burn the ~7gb file to a dual layer dvd r. there are tutorials and more information that you can search up on google. i dont think you can play other console games on the xbox 360. maybe some original xbox games.

i got my xbox modded by some people i found on craigslist. they did it for 20 bucks and gave me a free game also. it works fine and works on xbox live also. i downloaded more games after finding a forum that posts xbox game download links and burned them. i use memorex dl dvds. it was $20 for a pack of 25.

When is Xbox live online game play going to be free?
Q. Look, the Playstation 3 has online game play and the Xbox 360 doesn't. Doesn't that look odd because if Microsoft is trying to compete with Sony I would say that the first thing they should do is make online game play free so more people will consider in getting a Xbox 360 instead of a Playstation 3. So are they going to make online game play free on the Xbox 360 pretty soon?

A. Well that proposition of yours would make since if Microsoft was behind but dispite them charging for online more people get 360 online then playstation 3 , plus i own both a ps3 and a 360 and the 360 online is considerably nbetter since a portion of the money is used for exclusive DLC and updates
