The people at Linux Xbox Project have released Xbox Linux 0.1.

"The free operating system Linux is able to be booted either from flash memory, or (more easily) from a CD inserted into the machine. (The Xbox still needs to have a modchip fitted to allow it to run unsigned code; however these are widely available and start from $30)."

what is the thrill about this? it would be easier for me to take out my old pc and install linux, in about an hour. this sounds like a thrill to me, more than anything else..
