Ah ! I see you are a conclusion jumping smartarse.

This is the chip I want.

I have all three of the current generation consoles and do not have a
single pirated game for any of them. Between the three of them, I
currently have 43 original games. Never mind all the *originals* I have
for the GBA, PS1, DC, SNES etc.

In fact, when this chip becomes available, I intend to buy another XBox,
chip it and use it for MAME, SNES, TV Recorder, copy my games to hard
disk, arse about with Linux etc. I have absolutely zero interest in
using it for pirate XBox games. [1]

[1] Although clearly I understand that the emulation elements I intend
to use it for are potentially illegal.

And if you'd bothered to Google for my previous postings on the subject
of chipping, before being an accusatory ****, you would know all this.

Ooooooh... I just wondered what you wanted the *new* chip for that the
current generation of chips doesn't do. As far as I know, you can do all of
what you mentioned above with the chips on the market at present - and at a
reasonable price. ...and as for searching Google for postings from you
before - all I could find were 372,123 posts regarding OT threads...

So you made an assumption about the chip itself and then jumped to a
conclusion about what I wanted it for, is what you are saying.

It will essentially "do" what the existing chips do. However, it will do
it in a "nicer" way like the DMS3 chip for the PS2 does. In the case of
the XBit chip for the XBox, it allows flashing via the XBox USB port via
a supplied cable, and the modchip would appear to be very competitively
priced compared to an Executor with pogo-pin attachment.

Given that unless you are a modchip seller, the thread was clearly not
aimed at you, if you are going to respond to it and make a comment, then
asking what I wanted it for might have been more appropriate. Making an
inference that I wanted it for pirate XBox software was innapropriate
and guaranteed to get my back up.

I apologise for my hostile response to your post, but I am sick and
tired of people assuming that everyone that wants to chip their
consoles, wants it for piracy reasons.

I am just about to chip my PS2 with a DMS 3 for instance. Is it for
piracy ? No ! It is so that I can import USA RPG's that are not getting
a UK release and play them. Yet again, I have chosen the DMS3 because it
is flashable via a CD, and currently the best chip solution available.

I hate to just chip in, but I too have a chipped box (xecutor 2.1) which I
got purely so I could play original xbox games, and also my mp3's in my
living room (all legally ripped from originals so I can have them on my
creative jukebox, although that'll be illegal too if the cactus etc. CD
protection brigade have their way) and I don't own a single pirated game,
much as my friends berate my stupidly altruistic attitude, and think I
should just download them on the ol' emule.

I know it's still an abuse of M$ loss leader to use their box to play my
mp3's, and not some M$ friendly wma's, but I can certainly live with my
conscience on that point ;-)

At the risk of you spitting feathers at me....if you consider yourself
useless with a soldering iron, you might want to get someone to fit your ps2
chip for you....they arent that ease for amateurs. I am a professional, and
I have to take great care with them.

I absolutely wouldn't consider fitting the PS2 one myself. Far too many
wires on far too fiddly solder points, for my big fists.

Although trying to find someone in Northern Ireland who can do a good
job of fitting them, at a reasonable price, is proving difficult.
