EB games told me yesterday that I won't be getting my Xbox 360 pre-order. That's annoying, but not unexpected. I did pre-order in September, but whatever.

I saw an ad on the glass teat that said Best Buy will be open at 8am to sell Xbox 360s.

Excuse me, my brain is melting.

I'm having second thoughts about lining up. Simply because I know that the tv crews from local station will be there. I don't want filmed evidence of my nerd like behaviour.

Do it anyway, and if questioned, tell them you're in line for a new HiFi for your jazz records and you have no idea what "zuhbox" is.
