FreeBSD Ported to XBox 194
NetFiber writes "FreeBSD has been ported to the XBox. "Over the last 2 weeks, I have been working on a port of FreeBSD for the XBox. The port is fully functional. The framebuffer is fully supported, same goes for sound and USB devices (such as an USB keyboard). Only ethernet is missing, currently." The FreeBSD on XBox website is here, downloads included."

All obvious jokes aside, this is an awesome job by these young up-and-comers. Porting FreeBSD to a Microsoft gaming console, what a task.
1: Load FreeBSD on XBox
2: Install nMap, Nessus & Metasploit, hack CitiBank
3: ??
4: Profit!!
When the F.B.I. shows up just play dumb and say, "I don't have a computer."

That's probably a good thing. Because then you prevent users from having to "call emergency_room();"
