Modded Xbox for sell (to help mp3car community)

Ok i've been getting a bunch of pm's about this so i thought i would just start a thread... I don't NEED to sell these, i just want to help some people out.

An Xbox can be a very powerfull media Center if modded correctly..

Features of Darkhalo XBOX's:
Full media entertainment center
-DVD DIVX MPG MP3 playback (with cool visuals)
-listen to internet radio and record mp3s
-Picture Viewer
-Internet Browser
-Can be loaded with GentooX linux.. and touchscreen can be configured to work with proper drivers
-You can any emulator includeding PS1 ANd n64 on it
-GAME BACKUP on HDD: When you insert a new game in the xbox.. it can copy it to the hard drive so the disk wont be need while playing
-And of course GAME GAMES GAMES... you fit anywhere from 50-90 games on a 120gb hard drive
-And Much much more !!!

Technical Info:
-4 usb ports(controller ports) with the proper adapter you can connect usb devices like Keyboard mouse... and Even GPS(will only work under linux)
-with a ethernet to wifi brigde you can connect the xbox to wifi.
-Transfering files to the xbox is a breez.. just log into the xbox via ftp client..
-I usually put 120 gb hard drives but i can pretty much put any hard drive you want into it...

Thats all for now.. so .. let me know what you think

BTW xboxs will be shipped totally legally (which means no copywrite data loaded)

yes yes very interested... few quick questions:

- OS must be Linux? Would Lindows or Knoppix or even Redhat work?
- Will it have its own interface or would we need to use one like Frodoplayer?
- If it does have its own, open source? and fully customizable?

very interested

thanks

If only we could find a bunch of v1.0 or 1.1 Xboxes, those are by far the easiest to mod. I have the TSOP flashed on mine & I love it, just no Xbox live for me...
