Without a hardware modification chip that you can turn on and off, you
are out of luck. The hard drive soft mod, is an option, but you will
have to redo it every time your dash board get over written my a live
game. I am not sure if they are banning people though so do this at
your own risk. Your best bet if you are stuck on using an xbox, would
be to pick up a second one cheap on ebay or something. All the fan
boys will be selling there xboxes to buy the 360 in a couple of weeks,
so they should be going even cheaper soon. Then use one box for
playing live games, and the other for myth, linux, or anything else.
