what can I do with 2 old xbox units (not 360) and 2 x Playstation 1 units?

[DominicJeans]

:0) cheers!

Xbox units can be made to run xbmc.

 

[Badgerman85]

You could chip the original xbox's and use them to run emulators to play classic SNES and Mega Drive games etc, and could also install XBMC on it and use it as a media centre (although will not be able to do HD due to the dated tech) as for the Playstation 1, stick it in the bin?

 

[Hixle]

Take them apart part for part and fabricate a house for mice to live in. Elevating the house means it could also be used for birds.

Or sell them on eBay.

Depending on which model Playstation 1 it is they are actually well regarded as a decent mid-high end audio cd player.

 

[DominicJeans]

XBMC? and I like the mouse house idea......................

 

[Badgerman85]

XBMC = Xbox Media Centre

Its pretty good, we've got an old xbox with it on, its great if youre not planning on watching anything in HD quality!

 

[DominicJeans]

ok, cool.! I will check it out....

 

[robgooch]

Put them in the bin???

 

[jordski19]

Book ends?

If you look underneath the original xbox you will find a screw with an arrow pointing to it. Don't unscrew it otherwise the green plasma will drain and its a nightmare to get back in.

I'd personally pop to b&q, buy a fine rope, some screws, some raw plugs and a bracket mounted pulley, make sure you pay the 5p for a bag (don't be cheap).

Go home, empty the bag of its contents, put all three consoles in the bag.

Get a drill, drill four holes in the ceiling to mout the pulley, put the raw plugs in.

Screw the pulley to the ceiling, and attach one end of the rope to the bag full of consoles, put the other through the pulley.

Hoist the bag of consoles into the air directly above your ahead and let go of the rope.

Hopefully this will knock you clean out and I won't have to read any more of your f**king drivel.

Actual Lol's

 

[DominicJeans]

drivel? Or chat that is relevant to the forum in which it is posted?

 

[Adamm.]

I'd probably chuck them into the bin tbh or if you know anyone that might want them just hand them over for free.

 

[The Fatty]

bit OTT rob lol. Don't open the thread if you don't want to read!

 

[Rob]

So hang on a minute, Luke's suggestion was funny, and mine's out of order???

It was supposed to generate a laugh, nothing more. Jesus.

I'll use 1,543 winky faces next time.

Flol at this thread.

 

[stevescort172]

I lol'd, ffs just bin them or put them in the electrical bins you find at a bottle bank. Then useful bits can be taken and used for something else.
