Xbox Media Center is the only reason I had my Xbox modded. This media center beats M$oft's Media Center handsdown due to it's constant updates for all new codecs and file types, plus lets not forget the python scripting, weather forecasts, streaming radio...the list goes on.]]>Jan 23rd 2006 4:15PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2006/01/23/original-xbox-tips-and-tricks/http://www.engadget.com/2006/01/23/original-xbox-tips-and-tricks/Jan 23rd 2006 4:16PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2006/01/23/original-xbox-tips-and-tricks/http://www.engadget.com/2006/01/23/original-xbox-tips-and-tricks/

Other than recording TV, it's hands down the best all-in-one set top box.

SIDE NOTE: if you like XBMC, try out the PC version of it! (not the exact same but it was designed by members of the same team and also includes TV recording!)

Also, you don't need a chip to mod your xbox. you can "softmod" it. It's much easier and cheaper than a mod chip.

And don't forget to set the RSS feed in your XBMC to engadget!]]>Jan 23rd 2006 4:49PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2006/01/23/original-xbox-tips-and-tricks/http://www.engadget.com/2006/01/23/original-xbox-tips-and-tricks/http://wootboot.com/xbox_pc.htm

XBox can be used for dozens of emulators. Preferrably MAME with hundreds (actually thousands) of coin-op arcade games at your fingertips in one emulator. N64 emulation is pretty great as well. And XBMC as everyone has noted, is just simply amazing.

I suggest you get a chip at http://www.xboxmodchip.com for a cheap price.]]>Jan 23rd 2006 11:02PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2006/01/23/original-xbox-tips-and-tricks/http://www.engadget.com/2006/01/23/original-xbox-tips-and-tricks/
The xbox isn't that old but...

looking at it now, it really does look like ancient technology,

something from the big and clunky from the past.
