I wonder if the recent security code change rules this particular development out for Xboxes purchased in the near future.

    So *some people* buy these XBoxen(TM) and Micro$oft looses a few hunderd on each box, and then they don't recoup money selling their games because *some people* use the box to play their MP3's and run Linux and have an all around fun time without buying games? Hehe... that's got me goin' like tickle-me-elmo.

    I wonder if THAT could run, oh nevermind. It looks nothing like a penguin anyway.
