    Pretty cool. You can put linux on pretty much anything with some form of an OS in it now. I had Linux on my iPod before I sold it, 'twas awesome.

    I have Linux and XBL, you just have to "disable" Linux before you go on live :)

    Well this is also new for me but why would anyone want to change the OS wouldnt that greatly effect the way the Xbox works?

    Well, I just want to ask... what other features can you do if you have Linux on Xbox? Cause I was thinking of getting an Xbox solely because of this

    They don't work together cause if your xbox is modded you can't go on xbox live.
