Depends on what you want to do.

Oh, I almost forgot to mention.

I'll agree to call the plural form of Xbox "Xboxen" only if everyone else will agree to call the plural form of Pikachu "Pikachii".

I never said anyone had to agree with me.

Good point.

I can understand why the plural for "xbox" would be "xboxen." The plural for "ox" is "oxen". But the plural for "Pikachu" can never be "Pikachii." No plural can end with an "ii." However, singular words that end with "us" can replace those two letters with an "i"; i.e. "cactus" would become "cacti."

Enough grammar talk, unless the geb approves.

Well, you need to unless you want an unreliable mod that could brick your box if it ever goes unplugged, and you'd need to buy extra stuff to do the mod anyways.(Which would come up to around the same price of a modchip IIRC)

I softmodded my xbox.
I spent $3 on a copy of mechassault and used flax I already had.
My xbox has been unpluged MANY times for LONG periods of time.
I'm not seeing it, dude.
Not to mention once you buy the ($3 worth of) stuff to do it, you can mod as many xboxen as you want.
Modchips only work for one.
Come one man, at least try to know what's actually going on.

That said, I'm getting an xbox off of a coworker tonight, so there should be some sort of progress soon. Probably me chopping the flax out of the case

Meh, some mods need things like an AR or USB adapter and such, and things like a clock loop can *PLAQUE* over your box.
Not to mention the lack of support for replacement HDDs(Which I forgot to mention earlier), a new BIOS will let you plop any old drive in instead of worrying about HDD locking and such.

USB adapter

I built this... Do you know what I used? I used a USB extension cable, the breakaway dongle, and a 1gb thumb drive.

I spliced the usb cable into the dongle, and knocked out two things in one: xbox controllers for pc, and usb stick for a memory card for an xbox.

Most of us can handle this project. I mean.. It's one of the first soldering jobs I did and it still works flawlessly.
