What exactly is the point in mod-chipping and Xbox console a device which costs a lot of money and then you got and take it apart (invalidating the warranty) and add a chip to run copied games which you term as "backups" well if you all just looked after your games better in the first place you would'nt need to copy them and if you all stopped copying the games in the first place and bought genuine games from you local video games shop then the prices will come down. And what is the point in trying to get Linux to run on the xbox i mean can't you be happy with the console as it is i have got an xbox console myself and are happy with it as it is i have no plans on "chipping it" or trying to hack into it to run Linux. Its only a games console you all no doubt have PC's with which you can dismantle, overclock and hack into to change windows in ways that m$ don't want you to.

LOL

damn dude, thats deep.

made me think....

We are borned do die... so it dosent matter what you in between. just have fun, is what i say.

if someone gets happy by modding there box, then its fine with me.
if someone gets happy by NOT modding there box, then its fine with me.

What bothers me, are people with no clue, trying to tell people whats wrong or not.

and you my friend are one of them.

what i am trying to say is why spend $200 on an xbox just to break it and when it does break no-one can fix it and no-one will fix it so all you can do is throw it in the bin and say to yourself thats $200 down the drain. Are all you mod chippers rich or something? people who can afford to buy a new xbox every other week its nice to own genuine copies of games like spliter cell because you get all the manuals and things and about the emulators big wow they are running on an xbox well if you go to www.edgeemu.com you can get all these games you mentioned for your PC for free and you don't have to ruin your xbox to play them.

Im yet to break anything on my xbox and i do have several legit copys of games. Manuals can be found all of the net. And by the way, your an idiot and having osama bin ladin as your avatar just makes you more of a fag

when you mod chip a console it knackers all the insides up and i have been reading some if the other posts on this forum and they have chipped consoles and they are having trouble running the games well its your own fault for doing it in the first place

youve never modded one yourself. you dont know this.
new chips are very simple to install. asking why people mod their box is like asking why you would overclock your pc. that $200 xbox can be the equivelant of a 4 or 5 hundred dollar linux box. with the possibility of dreamix, the fun of all the emulators, and the functionality of linux that 200 dollar investment is not only safe but multiplied in worth, if you know what you're doing.
