I'm not sure if you have read the article over at AnandTech:

http://www.anandtech.com/showdoc.html?i=1561&p=1

This article is great and it mentions the fact that Intel left debug pins on the XBOX motherboard, allowing you to most likely open up the BIOS configuration on your XBOX.

I am interested to see if anyone has done this or is willing to try. I want to see what it can do, so someone take pictures!

I'm afraid to break mine open, but might do it if provided with a simple set of instructions :)

I'm not afraid to take it appart, just afraid to short the BIOS pins. Unless someone taught us how :)
