Use XBOXHDM with a backup of your C and your eeprom to make a new HDD, or get a modchip (what I am doing).

How did you know of my weakness of moderation!? *melts*

Anyways, is there anything similar that makes the 360 "Unhackable", besides the jigsaw-puzzle case?

It's hacked. Look on Xbox-Scene for DVD drive firmware that let you boot backups (there are several DVD modchips out now too). You can also get to your HDD with a Team Xecuter Xbox 360 Connectivity Kit.

Check out Divineo.com and Xbox-Scene.com for more info on that stuff.

it's gotta be a dreamcast, look what I found from the atari 800 laptop page.

"so yeah, I set it right next to the gutted Dreamcast"

He's always had that Gutted Dreamcast...Gutted! He was going to call it the "DreamCastaway". He's already admitted to it being a 360p, & it should be done within a few days if not tomorrow...

If I supplied a near-complete preview picture, would you all swear upon PAIN OF BEING BANNED not to leak it to Digg, Gizmondo, or any of that?

Actually, I'm not sure that's a good idea, after what happened with the Atari 800 laptop (and trust me, this totally pwns that project)

The idea is we're showing [the new portable] and the trailer for "Echoes of the Past" (our ghost documentary) at the same time as a cross-promotion.

If all goes well, planning to finish today and post the story Tuesday. And yes, anyone with a modicum of deductive reasoning should have figured out what it is by now (one of you hit the nail exactly on the head)

Let's not act like spoiled brats that want their christmas presents early. We can wait.

I'm looking forward to this, but I can wait a bit longer.

OK, how about this Ben? Can you say which one of us "Hit the nail exactly on the head"? (Please?)
