The money you save from just buying a new USB cable means you can get in your pimped out ride :) and cruise down to super cheap auto (do you have that in whanganui?) and pick up some $2 spray paint for a Xbox controller that will stand out from the crowd. |

| 255927 | 2004-07-28 05:56:00 | You dont _need_ to have it connected to a LAN - You can quite happily get files off CD-RW's or DVD's and save them on the HDD. This works quite well if you HDD is larger than the stock 8/10GB Hard Drive :-) XMBC can be used entirely as a replacement Dash for XBox now, a nice improvement over XBMP. Im debating buying the 5.1 channel output kit so I can watch DVD's in full surround sound. Aside from this - The XBox controllers are just like any other USB Gamepad. Grab a Driver from xbox-scene.com and you're set! The USB Cables work two ways - Ive taken an old controller a mate was going to throw out (This was one he bought right back when XBox first came out for about $50 - a cheapo brand-less controller) and cut off the end so Ive got the XBox plug. Resolder it the right way and I can use my '2x Female PS2 > USB' adapter to plug my Wireless Keyboard and Mouse into my baby and use keyboard / mouse from the other side of the lounge. Its got a built in 10/100 Ethernet Adapter, and I plan on putting Gentoo on there when Ive finished trying out a few different Dash's, and running Gaim. Why not have a desktop PC for $300?! Sounds good to me..... Small-form-factor, portable, nice graphics card although the 64MB Ram could do with upping.... I really hope they dont take the HDD out of the next XBox2 :-( Chill. |
