Hi, just wondering if anyone could tell me what's the go with the Windows OS Emulation on Xbox. Some of the things I'd be interested in knowing is what versions of Windows are done, how reliable are they, and how to obtain them.
Thanks

I would definitely be interested in seeing this also. Anything to make the XBOX more powerful for me. A web browser would kick ass also. Any ideas on that?

I'd assume that Internet Explorer would be used for surfing the web. A network connection to your PC should be able to connect to the internet also (hopefully).
I'm really hoping that someone can post some usefull information on this topic as I believe this would benefit a lot of Xbox users.

Since I already use the Linksys wireless router, this will work great for me.

In our house we dont have a linksys router, but all the USB wireless card are linksys. The WET11 should connect to any wireless router, shouldnt it?

I'll bet it is b since that is what is most widely supported now, or a combination of b and g

The prices were ranging from $75 to about $119. But from amazon, they were $80. So it's a little more expensive, but well worth it for us wireless people.
