If they both cost the same i'd say: FAT! There are no real differences between the two and the fat one just looks alot nicer... no, the slim just looks like dog poe.

There 300 bucks dude..and get which ever you want. Slim will probably run a little cooler.

There is a Official Slim thread if you somehow magically missed it.

They're both $299 or you can get a regular one for cheaper from E-bay or Amazon.

Buy the fat because it's reliability is proven and because it has better air circulation ,plus the disks are not getting hot.

Just get the Slim... The only reason to get the old one is if you really can't stand the look of the Slim (who cares anyways... as long as it works well).

The reasons to buy the fat istead of the slim , for me are :

1) proven reliability

2) Doesn't get so hot

3) Linux (for everybody who cares)

4) Bundle offers - got mine for 299€ (same price with the Slim in Europe) but it came with second Dual Shock 3 ,Uncharted , Motrostorm .

An extra reason i did not want the Slim , at least for now , is the location of the Hard Disk , right under the BD ...
