Hey All,

Well, its been 1 whole year since me and n1tro starting modding for the GTA and abroad. God knows how many mods we have done! Just wanted to update this thread to announce a special **FREE** giveaway that we are going to have in appreciation for all our past RFD members who has spread the word about us.

www.mad-mods.com (our site) is going to be giving away ten 10gig Seagate hard drives randomly to anyone who post in our giveaway thread (do a search). The only rule is one entry per username. We'll let the contest go until 3/12/04 so sign up and maybe you'll get something for nothing!! We'll cover the shipping cost of send the HD to you too!

You can upgrade the HDD to any size, a 60 Gigger will do fine.
The Modchip/bois supports all makes and sizes upto 138GB.

[b]Hey All,

Missed out on N1tro's great services and prices?    

Well, IT'S BACK!!  :P      

I, Zackweed, will be continuing his services here in the GTA while he moves on to LA.
If you need your xbox modded, I install the same homebrew chips with the Xceuter2 Bios.

Homebrew chip with installation includes:[list]Toggle switch to turn modchip on and off (To play XBOX Live)[*]Larger HDD expansion support for upto 138 GB[*]Reflashable chip from XBOX Console[*]Evolution X setup with utilities[*]Region Free DVD Player with Macrovision off[*]XBOX Media Player to play DivX, mpeg, vcd files[*]FTP Client/Server[*]ROM Emulators (Finalburn and MAMEX)[*]Ability to Load Linux[*]Full Demo on how to use your new XBOX features[list]and much, much more!!! 8)  

You can get all this for only $80.
*** Get this package and I'll give you a FREE HDD installation swap with purchase of my homebrew chip with install.

I have an over-night turn-around-time.  Just drop it off and I'll have it ready the next day.

UNLOCK THE FULL POTENTIAL OF YOUR XBOX!!!   :wink:  :P

I was just there last weekend. I don't plan to go back for a while.

You can ship it or drop by some time. I do canada wide, if you pay for shipping.

Zackweed,
how much you'll charge for the combo (mean including the xBox)
I'm interested to have a linux and entertainment machine.
Would it be possible to have 2 HD (req'd physically swap probably) 1 for linux and the other one for the e-machine
Which Linux have you tried (if any)

I don't have the old premods anymore. I will be selling the new premods at $430 because I will make sure that it has the new samsung dvd drive. These babies read cd-r, cd-rw, dvd-r, dvd+r, while the older ones only reads dvds and "may" be able to read some cd-rws.

As for the HDD swaps, ya, you can swap between the 2 hdds... just have to prep the 2 drives.

I have tried the linux live so far and it works great. I haven't tried the mandrake one yet(don't want to sacarfice my 72GBs)

No, pre-modded means I modded it before you buy it.

It's 430 with chip included. No taxes on top of that...
