I guess this means I can't get my Xbox modded...

I hate the Xbox. All the Xbox fanatics at my school always make fun of me and my Gamecube. It's a real turn off, at one point I was going to buy an Xbox, until I talked to them.

Holy crap!!
Hmm, I agree, and yet I disagree. Microsoft should be able to do that, but I would want to modd my Xbox...if I had one, even though it is wrong.

LOL!!! I get the same thing!!!
What is this magical problem that everyone has with the Gamecube!?!?!
"Oooohh, it cant play DVD's so it must be crap.."
"Ohh it doesnt have many games so it must be crap"
"Ohhh, the games are childish, so it must be crap"
Nintendo wants it that way, and I like the games, because it attracts fans of the originals.
On that note, Metroid prime 2 just shipped, so im off to check it out...

Interesting article quote:

But it is important to Microsoft to prevent such cheating on Xbox Live, where multiple players can take part in games. Ferroni said the goal is to make sure there's a level playing field.
Sorry, but I've got a hard time believing that M$ and her lawyers are doing this to keep cheating on their network down.

This makes yet another philosophical difference that I've got with M$: I buy a box, I should be able to do whatever I feel like with the thing. This business of "you're wrong, but we'll not sue you right now" is a cop out, and a pretty thin one at that ...

LOL about the console superiority complex. That sounds the same as the attacks people with Macs get from PC users
