I decided once again to post my X-Mas list online. And here we go.
I am sure there are some other odds and ends that will be gracing this list over the next week or two when they come to me.
So I finally modded my Xbox and installed Xbmc on it, and man I must say its sweet. I haven’t had much time to mess with it as of yet but from the time I spent toying around with the setup of things its a vast improvement and will make a great center piece to my entertainment center. More postings about this to come as soon as I have more time to mess with it.
I was starting to think that my site was getting little to no attention. I hoped that if I were to update it to the new version of Wordpress it would spur my interest again … but yet all it has done is create 3-4 new posts all talking about an upgrade. Not exactly what I call good times in the world of blogging.
After hearing Chase talk about his new fairly new Xbox setup with XBoxMediaCenter installed I was wanting to get an XBox and do the same. And I think the stars might be aligned just right or something as Brian and I were talking the other day and he actually just picked up an XBox and is looking to sell it, even has the DVD remote which is a plus. So after talking with him I was going to go to Vegas and get it this weekend, but I had forgotten this was the same weekend Alexis was coming to visit me for her spring break. I have made other plans on getting the XBox though so I should have it Monday afternoon if all goes as planned. From there I am planning on installing a new hard drive in it (120 gig) and installing XBoxMediaCenter, this will replace my MythTV Box that I recently created. I have no plans on getting rid of the MythTV box but instead I am going to turn that into a Fileserver/Backend/Desktop and just stream all recordings to the XBox. I am creating a new category on the site here for the XBox and will be posting updates to how the install goes and everything that I do to it.
