so, modifying my old xbox to use as a media center, is not legitimate? You'd rather it sit unused, than a new use being found for it? It isn't used for games anymore, since I have a 360 for playing xbox games, but works great for video podcasts, and things like that. Even if I did use it for gaming, MS doesn't support it anymore, so I can't get new games for it, or use it online. Even on newer systems, there are all sorts of great hacks and mods, that don't allow the system to do anything illegal, but instead be used in different ways. Ben Heck is well known for his mods, to make consoles portable, or controllers to be used by the handicapped. No legitimate use there either, eh?
