Xbox Media Center
I now have XBMC running on my
old Xbox. It is pretty cool so far. I now need
to set it up to stream media from my MacBook.
To get it installed I had to softmod my Xbox using an exploit in Splinter Cell. I also had to get files to the Xbox, so I soldered a USB connector to an old Xbox controller so I could hook it up to my Mac and put the files on it through Action Replay in Windows XP in VMware Fusion. It really was quite quick to do, and I'm glad I have a use for my old Xbox now.
If you want to do this, Lifehacker has a great step by step guide on how to get everything modded and installed. Just follow it step by step and you will be good to go.
