Just delete the videos and music that came preloaded in the hard drive. That will give you some bit of extra space.

The content would be able to play old Xbox games, the music, and vids.

I deleted the James Cameron "Titanic" bit and the inside the 360 stuff too. I kept the Adidas commercial and the Snowboarding thing as well. All the music is still on my harddrive as I have yet to edit out the stuff I don't like.

But, I have 13gigs of free space left even after downloading 6 arcade games. Not sure if I will need to upgrade or not. I guess it will depend upon how much they start to offer through the Marketplace. If movies/full games/music become available... I'll be in trouble.
