Ahh, okay then, not applicable to my situation as (TMK) nobody's been
successful yet in modding the 360 (and even if they had, I'm not
interested in trying it) =;->
Thanks for the info all the same. And since I mentioned it in my first
message, GeeXboX is *really* sweet. Small (6MB) ISO file and it boots
directly of a CD, and automatically recognizes all your drive partitions
and if your video card supports it, enables TV out. Very nice. Don't
have one to experiment with, but if you have a remote control supposedly
they are supported as well (the docs show the ATI one common with the
AIW cards, as well as a few others). Supports DivX, DVD, audio CDs,
etc, etc etc. And very low system requirements, the minimum CPU is
something like a P400 (although I tried it with my noisy P4 3Ghz). I
was pretty impressed with it overall.
