Having purchased a Xenium as my first Xbox chip, I was very pleased with the reliability and ease of use it provided. The product was clearly worth the considerable investment required, solderless installation was fast, and to this day I have no complaints about my ourchase. That said, I was about to make my next chip an Xecuter 3. Why? Honestly, I found Team Xodus's announcements on Xbox-Scene's home page to be a bit cocky for my tastes. While I loved the products, I wasn't sure if I wanted to purchase them from people who would so overtly bash Team Xecuter -- people who have been integral to the development of the mod scene and deserve every bit of the respect given to them -- as well as everyone who uses their products. With the news of the SP's release, I found a return to professional announcements that didn't make it look like someone was trying too hard to take over the market. It has renewed my confidence in the integrity of Team Xodus, and I would like to thank them for remembering that competition between businesses need not be entirely unfriendly.
