Xbox for $99? Xbox 2 in 2005?

TimeForGuinness writes "CNN is reporting that Microsoft's Xbox may be on the verge of a substantial price cut, falling from $179 to $99 by Labor Day, and Microsoft will launch its next generation console in late 2005 - a year earlier than has been previously rumored. That would put the Xbox 2 on store shelves up to a full year before Sony's PlayStation 3."

Would somebody mind posting a summary of what it takes to turn an Xbox into a standalone PVR, from modding to installation, etc.?

Google and half a brain.
