No-Solder Modchip For The Xbox

toothfish writes "There's a review of the latest generation of Xbox modchip over at xbox hacker- no solder, flashable BIOS, 15 min. install, etc. Stuff like this should make it easier for the average Xbox user to run emulators, Linux, and such. No word if it does or does not work in the latest iteration of Xbox though. Anyone from australia order one of these guys yet?"

    Gates: What !
    Allen: Main TV screen turn on.
    Gates: It's You !!
    Linus: How are you gentlemen !!
    Linus: All your XBox are belong to us.
    Linus: You are on the way to destruction.
    Gates: What you say !!
    Linus: You have no chance to survive make your time.
    Linus: HA HA HA HA ....
    gates: Take off every 'DRM' !!
    Gates: You know what you doing.
