Why wouldn’t you?

the Xbox is great for emulation and homebrew, I got mine set up as a full media center using XBMC so I can stream music, movies, youtube and also installed several emulators to allow me to play snes, nes, gameboy, Amiga, arcade games etc.

I only wish the more recent consoles had a homebrew/emulation scene as good as the original xbox.

I agree there is no substitute to real Amigas but emulation is a lot more convenient, even more so on the Xbox :)

Yeah, XBMC is fantastic. I have it set up as the default dashboard and running it in HD. Bit of a strain for the old Xbox hardware but still fun to mess with.

Amiga and C64 on a 42" TV lol. I used to dream about that back in the day  :crazy:

I also think that if the Amiga had lived it would be where the PS3 is now.

I did actually try to install Windows98 via BOCHS on the Xbox once...... Ok, it wasnt the XBox running Windows native, but its pretty close and totally unusable (same as on a normal pc :P). I thought the windows setup had crashed but it turned out it was just really really slow :)

In all honesty tho, I did feel dirty for having Amiga software running on MS hardware.  :lol:

OS4 for the PS3 is where we need to go, but I cant see it happening.
