xbox tampering : guys charged (http://news.yahoo.com/s/nm/20051220/tc_nm/media_xbox_dc;_ylt=asda5up4u48_6bjvb2.lwzss0nue;_y lu=x3odmta3oddxdhbhbhnlywm5njq-)
i think this says it all...
"during the investigation, undercover agents with u.s. immigration and customs enforcement paid $265 to have a modification chip, a hard drive and 77 pirated games installed on an xbox, according to the criminal complaint."
same thing happened recently in the uk - it relates to the selling of copied games on the hdd more than anything...
