Hey there everyone, I'm new to this forum.
Just tought I would follow up on the xbox subject, having soldered mine in there,
I have a modchip (executer 2 lite), the soldering wasn't hard at all, even if you haven't soldered ever before... it will cost you 20$ and about 1 hour of practicing.
Or you could go to your local pawn shop to get it chipped which usually costs around 80$ depending on where you are...
Anyways Soldered vs No Soldering, depends, No soldering "sounds" alot easier...
but in the end you can mess up your xbox severly, with this method as you have to scratch off the first layer over the D0 connection (Where you have to solder normally)
And its only held on there by a silly little header pin, so if you jiggle your xbox or something it can A) move and disconnect B) just scratch it more and maybe break the connection...
Anyways if someone needs some help with their xbox or something let me know, I have modded many of them before, and realistically its not that hard... just have to get the big picture.
My xbox current run's :
Evox (Dashboard)
X2 (Bios)
80gig hdd, homebrew keyboard / mouse (For linux)
Has about 40 xbox games on it, and just about every other game for anything Nintendo 64 and under (nes, snes, sega, playstation).
Oh yeh, and if any of you need some coding done or some servers setup, I'm newly out of work, about 8 years of unix administration, and 5 years of php coding amongst other things, Anyways just trying to help out.

Peace
