One of my co-workers has friends in Redmond. He went down for a weekend and had a good time with some members of the XBOX design team. From discussions with them he said it sounded like they'd put as much effort into making the system proprietary (specifically so as not to hacked to run with Linux) as in designing the box period. He was talking about changes to even the IDE interface and whatnot, but that's 3rd hand...If anyone gets it to run Linux, they deserve a NoBill prize.

That just makes it more interesting! I just got my X-Box this past weekend and the soldering begins in a couple of days when my TSOP40 socket gets here...
