I've seen you post about these before, what are they actually used for? is there like a website with instructions on how to set em up? cus it sounds interesting.[/QUOTE]
I used
Lifehacker's guide to softmod my Xbox, which was very clear and easy to follow. Hardest requirement to track down was a Memory-card-to-USB dongle, but I discovered that one for the original Xbox is included in the box when you buy the 360 version by Datel (the Action Replay people).
Still my favorite under-the-tv media streaming device, even now that I have a PS3 and a 360. Interface is slick, and it plays nicely with my house fulla' Macs. I use it for everything: upscaling DVD player, streaming downloaded videos from the computer to the tv, streaming Shoutcast Internet radio to the stereo (as well as my iTunes library), even on-demand streaming tv shows from sources like NBC.com and CBS.com (you could even watch Hulu on it for a short, glorious time). And don't even get me
started on the emulators...
Anyway, back on topic... looks like my local, rarely-visited Gamestops won't be getting any visits from me to find any half-price Xbox deals. A quick inventory search on their site for some common games is cluing me in to the fact that they probably don't carry any OG Xbox games anymore.
