I've been wanting to make a gaming box since a long time now.
Whadda mean? Make a computer used for watching movies, playing games, but mostly emulating older consoles.
I planified taking a small factor case like those Shuttle cases, but more and more i discover that the Xbox has tons of possibilities that will maybe spare me of spending alot of money on a computer that will only be plugged to my TV. Only today i learned by Sprung that you could watch DivX on your Xbox.
I'd like knowledgable users to post and answer, write if it's difficult to do that with an Xbox compared to a PC, and write comments/alternatives here and then. Oh, and obviously my Xbox will be modded, i'd like to know what could suit my needs (modchip, dash etc etc)
I got a PC, so the ftp'ing solution is fine for me.
I also have no problem buying extra parts too.
Try to give links to weird parts if possible, and maybe some shops were i could get that. I live in Canada (Quebec).
Thanks a bunch.

P.S. I you are wondering why I post this instead of searching the web, it's because i'm sure i'll get better results here than after searching years on google.
Also, I wasn't sure if it was the place to put this. It might not be.
