Xbox 360 Fanboy

Original Xbox hacker on 360

Andrew "bunnie" Huang literally wrote the book on hacking the original Xbox. On his blog he relayed an anecdote about the company that recently "de-capped and photographed the silicon inside the Xbox-360." Apparently, they're good.

What's more interesting is that he doesn't have a 360 himself explaining, "I don’t have an Xbox360; can’t find ‘em in the stores. I hear there’s a shortage of them, Microsoft missed their production targets. Not surprised."

Some hackers have gotten their mitts on it though.

[Thanks, Eliot]
