Ohhhh I love articles like this.

Very interesting to see the PC-esq hardware inside!

Wow, this was very nice, and quite educating. I love to take gaming systems apart. I did it with my kids X-Box, and PS2, but i was able to put it back together.

Woah!

If they add support for a keyboard/mouse i may well have to buy one, sell my PC, buy a 20" TFT monitor, and a laptop!

If its good for the 17 year old prodigy.. then its good enough for me ..although i will have to settle for a 17" monitor ?

Very cool article. I really had no idea just how close an Xbox was to a pc. Ok, so speaking of the original Xbox... if that was built using a standard Cd-rw drive and a Western digital hard drive.. and used IDE... whats to stop me from playing Xbox games on my pc...

(not the 360) -- I also wonder... if I removed the Xbox hardrive could I install that into my pc and run Xbox from my tower.. maybe there would be a lot of problems... it won't recognise 90% of the attatched devices. Makes me kinda want to get an old Xbix off of ebay and mess with it.

The 360 is so like a PC it should be sold in PC World under the "Computers - Desktop PCs" section

 

[crazylegs]
