Don't know if this matters to anyone here

re new Dashboard update

"the Xbox will also download some bug fixes without asking you.

The particular bug that this update will correct for the user is the ability to run Linux. Once the update is in place you will not be able to install Linux on your Xbox any more"

Nice one for reporting the article though :)

As a Mac user, I feel I must moan and protest as us being called protesting moaners.
