Well I finally got around to sorting out my xbox and modding so that I can set it up in the bedroom to replace out antiquated cheap DVD player. Don’t get me wrong as a cheap DVD player its done a great a job but its started to no load DVD’s properly and as such being technically minded I hit it as hard as possible until it reads the DVD. Plus having so much digital media now a days, I just wanna spread it around the house.

So at a cost of £27 I now have a media centre and a wireless bridge. Following the handy links provided by lifehacker, here and here. If you have an old xbox lying around I would recommend that you do it to.

Update

I would definitely recommend reading the follow-up article as it will make your media centre sing.
