XBox-hacktool?

Since the XBox is being shipped with a hard drive, is it possible to
open it up and use it as a cheap computer?

Also, I don't know how hard this is, but could an XBox user be attacked while online?

I wouldn't consider it a 'cheap' computer!

:p

J.

Does the Xbox run WINDOWS?

heh


actually i need to know which is better the xbox or the gamecube?

--=[ EDITED ]=--

Of course it can be attacked. Like.. it's an Microsoft product.. Would it be safe? I really think so..

ANd i wouldn't consider it 'cheap'...

I think microsoft should port quake 1 and 2 t xbox... the exact ver thats on pc..


gotta l0ve the "r00t" expoit id software encorporates.

anything online can be attacked to some degree, the question that is left unanswered (at least for the time being) is to what capacity can it be attacked.

CRaSH CRaSH CRaSH!

i have seen (although cant quite place it) a virus for the xbox ----- i will start sifting through my history to find it.

This is an interesting thread... Games consoles being attacked over the internet. It's worrying I guess.... but i have one question:

what does the attacker stand to gain, apart from your high scores?
