Dunno where you read that. X-Boxes have Celeron 733Mhz processors.

Whooops, I got it confused with the Xbox 360, which has a PowerPC processor.

Yes so an xbox could, in theory run windows could it not?

i think the 360 would be easier to put stuff on cuz it has a usb port, so what i would do is add a linux file or an exploit on a PSP or Ipod and load it to the 360 and let it override

Kinda ironic. Apple switches to using intel processors, shortly afterword, someone hacks windows onto Mac. Microsoft starts using PowerPC processors in their consoles, and now theoretically, Mac's OS can be put on a X-box.

lol

It's been more or less proven that it will never happen.

Uh, yeah.. As the topic starter I declare this topic locked. So the next mod here, lock it up and throw away the key...
I got the info I need, I just need the hard ware now...

We can't talk about mod chips, if this was aginst the rules it would already be locked.

It's a definte possiblity that Xbox can run Windows.
