Ive seen that one. It is cool. I have thought about that idea too. Not sure of the usefulness though. It would be great for DJ mixing.

True, true. I am now planning to turn my Xbox SE into a media center in a HTPC case. Well, not until I get the 360 of course! Oh, knocking on my door.....a delivery of new Xbox games!
Time to go.

that would be awesome - i know the controllers are compatible with each other with just a bit of cable splicing, so you could just have 4 usb ports up in the front that go to each machine. Man, I would love to see that, and I'd attempt it myself but for the lack of both and xbox and a ps2 - maybe when the 360 comes out someone will want to donate their old piece to me ...

I don't like Xbox in general, save for one word:

Halo.

In college, 4 box match-ups till 3 AM are where it's at.

W/O Halo, Xbox would be 3x in worse shape then it already is. :S
