Can't remember, it's somewhere on the dashboard, I changed mine to my actual name, which is a bit of a rare sight.

points are what you use to buy stuff like games from the arcade or the extra levels for Call Of Duty 2 etc... you need to add a credit card to buy them or you can get a voucher from GAME etc and enter the code to have the points added to your account.

Basically its the 360's online money.
