    Think of it in terms of how much porn they can store.

    Arcade: public place; most people don't keep their porn stashes in public. No HDD.
    Pro: somewhat private; maybe you've spent one or two afternoons entertaining yourself on company time. Small HDD.
    Elite: parent's basement; pretend this is spelled "1337" and everything falls into place.
