Xbox and Linux
Hey,
Is there a legal way to put Linux on your xbox? Do you have to have a mod chip -- I read an article on cnet saying that a company had found a way to do it without a mod chip but was waiting for Microsoft's permission before they released their results. I think it would be kind of cool to turn your xbox into a computer.

Thanks. I read the FAQ and am wondering what people do once they've turned it into a pc. I mean, it only has 64 mb of ram, do people mainly do this just for he heck of it? There's not much you can really do with it.

I suppose one benefit is being able to use the dvd player. But I think the negatives outweight the positives on this one. I might give it a shot on down the road when a new console replaces it and I dont play it as often. Plus I actually do play xbox live now and then.
