Interesting article about the mod scene for xbox/consoles

I'll more than likely be one of the few who grabs a hard drive for my PS2. Mostly for use of emulation of the dead oldschool systems and such. SNES/Genesis/NES/whatever. It's a pain to have to make homebrewn CD's of these things at this point. Hopefully I can just install them to the HD and bypass all the CD booting crap all together without the bother of grabbing any mod chips or gamesharks.
