Given that you have nearly 1500 posts, I thought you might have figured your way around this place, anyway.

this is totally off topic but just to explain...

no its not mad at all. i bought 4 because i decided to start modding xboxs in my spares time but i wanted to prectice on a few different versions first, and i have decided to keep them for a while, just in case i break one that i am modding (ie a 1.6)

also its very difficult to sell modded xboxs, boards and buyandsell delete them

heres the best bit, i never play games on them, i just use them for playing divx and xvid films on the telly,so i haven't gone to extravision in months

What is it with all the mods on here who like to quote the rules outside their own "areas of expertise"? Surely it's up the the mod of a particular section to decide what is OT or not?

Sorry to stay completely off topic but how do you know the version of your Xbox and what is significant about v1.5 or earlier?

he replied to the post regarding mukki's loss of money with a comment porporting that mukki made money (hence the "tax" reference).

I was actually going to call him a moron first, but as I don't know him, and it is actually the comment itself which is moronic, I retyped it.

Sorry to answer your completely off topic question.

There are some compatibility issues with the 1.6 XBox with the current mods while 1.5 or earlier are fine.
