[olug] xbmc on original xbox

[Daniel Pfile]

I own two, one with a regular chip and one with a solderless. The solderless
would constantly break, requiring me to open the xbox and re-attach the pin
(d0 I think).

I haven't thought about the original xbox in a while, they do have pretty
great bang for the buck.
