  1. but when will MS release a Linux Kit for it? by BroadbandBradley · · Score: 1, Troll

    Like Sony is going to for the Playstation? (and did in Japan already)
    BTW, anyone know when the Harddrive/Broadband adaptor will be available in the US?

    See MS can't do a Linux Kit for Xbox because although it's just a gaming console, it is produced by the Evil Empire who has alterior motives relating to trying to TAKE OVER THE WORLD!!!! everything they make has some hint of that evil plan in it, it all makes me feel so sick.

    Even if you'd like to get an Xbox to hack because you know it is sold at a loss, you become a barganing chip to entice support for the XboX known as installed userbase. MS would never let it be known that 50% of Xbox'es ended up running Linux and being used as PC's, they's just say :-)"we have 50 Million Xbox's in living rooms now make some games for it":-)

    Evil evil evil....don't buy into the evil empire.

  2. Hackin' and moanin'... by FleshWound · · Score: 0, Troll

    I wonder how long it will take for people to start hacking the crap out of their XBoxen, and then start bitching and moaning about how much MS sucks because all their games start crashing.

  3. pop-ups by guinsu · · Score: 1, Troll

    If this is a tech site, why the hell are all the images javascript popups instead of links. That is so annoying. You think they'd know better.
