Over here we see sense & a court would proberably declare it as ine, seeing as I have a receipt to show I paid for it & that I was not told that I was only allowed to use it before I paid for it...lol

lol well its true and it has been held up in courts :P, also one of the reasons why modding your xbox was declared illegal, but simply put no matter what you are doing with it, connecting it to a network, xbox live, or just sitting it in your lounge - fitting a mod chip in your xbox is illegal... the courts deemed that any chip that was designed to or adversely circumventer copyright protection within software is illegal - so whether you were told or not about the xbox being you complete property that is kinda beside the point anyway...
but you saying that you are allowed to fit a mod chip, which is illegal to you OWN xbox...that surely is the same as you saying you are allowed to commit any criminal act you wish on your own property....
as long as you live in this country and are thus bound by uk laws whether it is your property or not is of no concern, you are still breaking the law
