As part of the continuing "Get rid of shit we'll never use again." we're getting rid of the original XBox.

It's been soft-modded so that it has XBMC on it, so you can use it as a media centre. But it still plays XBox games just fine. It probably won't work online though, although I've never tried to do that.

Anyway, if you want it, and have some simple way of getting it from me to you, let me know, otherwise it's being binned.

I don't think an old Xbox will work online with the Live service anymore, modded or not. Compabibility with that era's games was sacrificed to make way for new features that're coming up.

-- Steve has heard of a couple of "tunnelling" programs that allow that era's consoles to treat the Internet as a huge router, making those games playable in "LAN" mode over the Internet, but that's apparently a bit tricky and lag can be an issue.
