OSX on an Xbox?

Our sister blog Joystiq has an interesting post on an Xbox modder community possibly being able to run OSX on the highly-anticipated Xbox 360, due out this fall. Since the Xbox 360 will have a tri-core 3 Ghz G5 chip in it, (so maybe we'll see 3 Ghz PowerMacs this fall too?) modders are teething at the potential of getting it to run OSX. Besides the Mac mini, I guess that'd be one of the cheapest (and smallest) Macs to be had out on the open market.

It sounds interesting, since I grew up modding and messing around with PC hardware, but since I saw the light and switched I've been a big believer in Apple's philosophy of optimizing and marrying their software to the hardware it runs on. Either way, check out Joystiq's post and the Xbox community. It's definitely an intriguing bit read.
