Read that old engineer of course it isnt a real dev kit, and its not advertised to be one!

[ArmyofONE]

heavily striped down dev kit?  uh this didnt come with a raptor card nor the card for the xbox everything u see onthat mobo is what goes on the prototype xbox this is a pre xbox xdk means even the ms dash is different what next u gonna say i striped that down too?

[old engineer]

So why don't the serial numbers tally up with the Dev Kit console test program numbers?

...And more importantly why does it have a 1.1 Ver motherboard like "MeNaCe911" quite rightly pointed out?

...That would mean that your "prototype" has a newer Motherboard than the first Official Prototype Dev Kit's, strange?

...Although yours could of been a prototype for the 1.1 Ver program, but they all had Daughterboards with ports fitted, unlike yours.

Definition:... "Stripped down" as in you've stripped it down into its component parts to take piccy's of it!!!

Yep, read the thread heinrich very interesting... The point is, its being sold as, and to quote: "ITS A REAL XDK PROTOTYPE" (The initials XDK stand for Xbox Development Kit) ... All I'm saying is it 'aint a real XDK PROTOTYPE.

Dood.  Look at the ebay auction.  Where does it say "XDK PROTOTYPE"?  Cause I am looking, and I dont see it.  I see "Xbox Protoype".  You claimed in the starting thread here that the seller is trying to sell a "xdk" on ebay, and that it wasnt one.  You bring up points to prove that it is not a true XDK, but I never saw any claims on ebay to say that it was.

[ArmyofONE]

but it is a true xdk PROTOTYPE u ask why the mobo is different its called DVT3 u as a dev shoul dknow what a dvt3 system is and u would know that the mobo didnt change untill dvt4 and dvt5. So back to what i was saying u may want to investigate a lil more before u claim things in open forum. Your reading case serials  if u would notice their the same as the newer  xdks. fYI THE NEW MOBO TECHNOLOGY ISNT NEW ITS JUST MS WAS CHEAP ON THE FIRST XBOX'S, and is just now using the new hardware.

I can vouch for ArmyofONE on this one. this is a legitimate deal.

I may not know everything about it...but i know this is the REAL DEAL. He knows his stuff and he knows what he is talking about. If you can't understand the word PROTOTYPE, it is completly okay to ask him a question in IRC or PM or something, but you can't accuse him of being a scammer because of a lack of research on your part.

ArmyofONE is an Xbox-Scene SPONSOR...not a scammer.

Im am not going to get into the details but armys XDK is legit, Ive seen it in real life. Its a DVT3 XDK, and for those people who will go on about why its not a XDK are ignorant. DVT3 was released preliminary to the actual release of the xbox, It does not run .xbe's like armyofone said it runs .xe, it doesnt have a MCPX X2 rather it has a MCP X2. Also it has many other things that differ like the kernel. The extra ports did not come with it but many DVT3s didnt, IMO its worthless to a developer but its an awesome peice if your interested in collecting, if anyone has anymore to say PM me on IRC, my nick is Spiral

[BCfosheezy]

Did everyone fail to notice that it has 128mb of ram and a pinheader soldered in? Sure it has the 1.1 heatsink but come on. This is the real deal and I'd love to give him $450 for it.

...U should of said it was a DVT3 as soon as u offered it m8, would of helped u and many others in knowing the full story.

Or YOU could have been a little slower to point a finger.

"ArmyofONE is an Xbox-Scene SPONSOR...not a scammer". ...I agree totally with this statement and would have serious words with anyone who said or thought otherwise.

So is that an apology...or what...?

i wouldn't be surprised if the seller is hanging around X-S, he's/she's OBVIOUSLY a modder, because his/her email is : [email protected] ... and www.xbox-wired.com is an xbox mod site....

--my point is why don't u just frickin ask him/her the questionz??
