 Original Xbox, Dust collector or Door Stop
I think I have turned my Orig. Xbox on just once since purchasing the 360. However I have a very disposable nature, always looking forwards and not one to try/revisit old things (other then my retro dvd collection). Just wandering whens the last time you guys have used yours?

 Re: Original Xbox, Dust collector or Door Stop
I  my Big Black Box. It gets used nearly everynight !! My Black box does more work than my 360. There are so many things that beast is capable of. I dont copy games like jeebs does .. no need to , im all legit  I mainly use mine as a game emulator (retro FTW) and a Media Centre (perfect for this) over my home network. Cheers !

 Re: Original Xbox, Dust collector or Door Stop
Well I use mine for V8 Supercars 3 and 2, plus other racers and some shooters that simply do not play on the 360. There's a heap that are great games. I have a Halo 1st-Gen sittingf under my 360, and no, neither of them gets hot when both are running playing games.
I also have 4 other 1st-gen xbox's, all are Collectors or Limited Editions. Not a BBB in sight. 3 have never been used

 Re: Original Xbox, Dust collector or Door Stop
Hahahaha, I just had a look through my closets and found my brothers old xbox, however I think the PSU is fried on it... might cut this one in half (horizontally), gut it, and use the two halves as dorito bowls.

Breath fresh life into it, Get a new PSU, and do a case mod on it . .There are some awesome 1st-gen xbox case mods around and they look great.
