i am getting XBL very soon, but i have a few question I hope someone can answer fore me pleae:)

When u first purchase XBL, do they take any money off of your visa even though u have just purchased it, and is there any computer software that has to be installed, because i dont wanna keep running around from xbox to pc everytime i want to join a room or something, and last one, do they take of any money yearly off your VISA for xbox live?

If you use a subscription code, i think they charge you automatically once it expires, and no, you do not have to use your pc at all, you can do everything on your xbox

not sure if they charge you right away, but you dont need computer, and they do charge automatically anually.
Most Live games offer two months free, then start charging, but you dont need starter kit, becasue the game will give you subscription code to go off of, but this way requires to buy headset serpately.

I think best deal is the starter kit that comes with game headset and subsrcibtion code all in one, because free trial requires to buy headset alone and that cost $30 (i think) plus price of game.

Xbox Live is not interfaced with your PC at all. When you purchase Xbox live, once the trail period runs out you are charged $50 a year to use the service, plus if you download any extra content it can charge you for that, depending.
