Yeah, you're right. Some little wheels come out of the bottom of the unit and it wheels itself down a hole.

i heard if you hack the 360 MS shuts the hole 360 down? is it true??

To be honest, no one knows.  People think that a function of the Hypervisor may be to shut down when it is "panicked" whatever that means, maybe when improper code is sent through it.
We have to try and hack it first before this stuff can be answered.

well, if it was shuting itself down, then you wouldn't really have the system hacked. The original xbox was designed to "shut down" in a way, but either M$ didn't read up on the products they were using, or they didn't think it would happen. Regardless though, there has to be something that tells the 360 to shutdown or error out. It is hacked when that item can either not send the message, or the message is ignored.

That will be disabled.  There genuine bla bla update protection was hacked in like what 2 days?  Just drop the dll in and bam.  

Dont be afraid of anything, remember who is working on this stuff.  Connecting to live is a different story obviously.

Disabling an actual hardware feature is a little bit more difficult than throwing some code in place of some other.  The hypervisor is enabled by the boot process. The very same that is in some memory bank on the processor die. And buses are encrypted this time.

It will take a little more than 2 days and a DLL to hack it.
