There is a lawyer that is selling Xboxen online already modded to run |
| 17 |
Linux, with Xebian pre-installed. I have spoken with him at length |
| 18 |
about the legal issues involved. He is hoping for a challenge from |
| 19 |
Microsoft but has been unable to bait them so far. |

|
| 21 |
His site: (http://robsbox.0catch.com). He has some documentation of his |
| 22 |
correspondence with Microsoft (http://robsbox.0catch.com/about.html) and |
| 23 |
eBay in regards to Xbox Linux. |

Rob has agreed to talk to anyone about the legal issues, but offline (he |
| 26 |
doesn't want to do Microsoft's work for them... ;-)) Feel free to |
| 27 |
contact him at his business Email address: robsbox@×××××××××.net. |

| 30 |
last time, to Gentoo!!! |
