I'm happy with my old school DS (a red and silver one as well). Yes, I have one of the big ones, and I have some "battery enhancement" device made by Datel (the company that makes Action Replays) that somehow works, which makes my already-big DS even fatter. However, it still works great, and I have no plans on replacing it anytime soon. Even if it DID break, I think I would get the DS Lite instead of the DS Lite, as I still play my GBA games, I have an AR for it, and it's $50 cheaper than getting a DSi. Plus it comes in red and black. :P
