hey great idea, im just about to install vista ultimate on my ipod nano.... if I link 2 ipods together 'THEORETICALLY' I could make them run in RAID 0, with dual VGA mode with 4 headphones giving me almost true surround sound 😀

 
Has anyone thought about installing Sun Solaris 10 on it? that's an opensource project.
 



My friend did this with a mod xbox and wireless.
 
The Xbox360 does not support x86 instructions.
 
My dustbin has windows XP on it, no sound or display, but it works a charm, full instructions below.
step 1: print screen your desktop.
step 2: print the picture out on your printer.
step 3: paste the paper onto your dustbin, (laminate it first)

your dustbin has windows XP on it now.
if you want to go a little further, you could put your real computer inside the dustbin, then it has Windows XP on it and inside, you could put a "intel inside" on your bin aswell.
and if your clever enough to that, you should go to a nut house.
come on tho, XP on a 360, I'd try the MAC OSX on it, because of the HD content and Graphics support.
 
He doesn't want a PC, he wants to see how its performance stacks up to a PC. Anyone whose seen the same game played on the PC and 360 can tell you how it stacks up. This kid probably just made a bet or something.
 



Which version of Dustbin was it ?
Mine is 4 GB ( Garbage Bags)

Will it run it ?
 
I have a windows Vaccum ultimate edition installed on my dust bin and it runs 3DGarbageTruck 4.0 on it and gives crysis a 13k score and I used a xbox360 as my recycle bin.
 
Actually it is possible i have done it to 4 360's now creating a high performance pc from a rrod 360 bought for 20 on ebay.
You will need a laptop dvd drive as a pc one wont fit into the 360 case also a 360 data transfer cable. Instructions are now posted online and yes it is a very good question most people wouldnt know how to do this.
Google 360 to pc
and youtube one of mine with xp on a 360.

You hecklers are dumb. Least he has the hacker spirit. So if I was MS, and I made windows, and then a gaming console, I wonder what code I would use to run the console.

Props to the original poster.

Nothing is impossible, unless you fall off the end of the world.
 
Way to pick on a guy for asking a question on a forum. Sad part is, you were all wrong.

It's the simple things in life that make me happy like a bunch of nerds bashing another nerd for asking a question in a place made to ask questions.
