True. I don't really see the point in it myself.

no one said they wanted bragging rites? i said people do use it as a reason though.
personally if xboxes could not be chiped/upgraded i wouldnt even think of getting one, i have more than enough pcs in my place. my main reason for getting an xbox would be...
me and myt flatmate have over 250 dvds, many of these i ahve recently started ripping to disk as divx (for home use only) as we have pcs in most of the rooms in the house but many without dvd drives. these can then be run in any room of the house with no problems. recently though i moved the pc from the living room back up to my bedroom and now i need either another pc or an chiped box for the living room.
that is my reason.
as for it being illegal...people will still do it whether its legal or not, everyone has their own reasons, some valid many not. a few years back i used to make easy cash chipping PS and PS2s for people, yet i have never owned my own games console ( unless you count a gameboy and a gamegear) purely because of my obsession with pcs, and the fact that i cant play a 1st person shooter on a joy pad
