43 Minutes estimated to install updates to XBox Live? :bleeding:

And I don't suppose I'll get any sympathy here for the fact that the XBox won't sync with a Mac?

Nope.

By the way I'm vaguely disappointed that nearly a year after they were introduced, the Elite system I bought yesterday was still not a Jasper.

That's what you get for hobo living. Come back to civilization.

Do you like turn based RPGs? If you do then you should play Lost Odyssey. It's really pretty and fun.
I do like those but still prefer my PC for them  :D

Soccer, racing and lego star wars is what I enjoy on my xbox atm.  :)

I would try to focus on a Linksys WRT54G or any variation (WRT54GL, etc.).  They should be cheap, and I'm guessing they're still available.  Install the third party DD-WRT or Tomato firmware & then make some fairly simple changes in the configuration.
Yup.  I made mine with an old WRT54G router hacked w/DD-WRT.

I no longer need it though, because when I switched to DSL from cable, I plugged my DSL modem in right next to my entertainment center, so now my X360 is on a wired connection directly to my WRT350N.

Those Elites move SLOWLY.
I do not hate you, nor do I love you, but you are made out of atoms which I can use for something else.

Thought they'd move faster with the price cut and all, is all.

Should be fine though.  Have it in a well-ventilated area, and keeping the receipt in case I need to take advantage of MS's 3 year warranty.

It probably had to do the major update from late last year-- basically a total update of the entire interface.  The old interface looks dated by comparison, so the update was well worth it.

And btw, they got that scrolling "twist" menu interface from the... Zune :o

Also Beeb, there is probably some upnp media server software out there for the Mac that will work with the Xbox.  I think you can even get the excellent Playon software to work on it.

Oh really?

Now that I got the networking to work it would be a handy way to stream files from the computer to the tv in the basement...

Do X-boxes play dvds?

Yes.  The only ones that don't out of the box are the Wii and Gamecube.

The sexbox is connected.


Also, when I asked my wife about buying it, she said "is that the one you can play guitar hero on"? :shifty:

So in addition to the Sexbox and NCAA 2010, I also walked out of EBGames with GHWT. :ph34r:

Did you get the whole set? (drum kit and all?)
I want my mother fucking points!
