I’ve had a leaning toward modding my X-Box for awhile now, and have just never arrived at the state which we call “getting around to it.” The chief drawback to doing an X-Box mod is that you won’t be able to use X-Box live, which so far I’ve never used anyways, and I’m not sure that I will. The advantages include being able to put a larger hard drive in it, and being able to use it as a PVR or an inexpensive computer. You can still play all your XBox games on it, of course.
A big hurdle for modding the X-Box used to be finding and obtaining a modchip, and then opening your X-Box up to successfully perform the mod. If this thought has stopped you before, check out Modding the XBox in 10 minutes.
