Don't bet on it. There's plenty else that can fit that description.Proabably Question mark foldering:
No power supply. Those are expensive. Unless you can borrow one from someone to at least diagnose it, meh.
You could easily make the $40 asking price and then some back on parts though, and if it does boot, woot, cube!
Please don't mangle it. Get a teardown guide and the right tools, clear a bench and take your time.
I ain't buying it! I'd like to though.
If it wasn't for the $138 shipping, I probably would nab it for a spares box.
I am buying an Xbox 360 Elite and an MSI Wind U160 soon (Selling my Acer Aspire one and MSI Wind U100 for this, Acer's on eBay). The Xbox I may get today. So I can't spend much monies!
Why do people buy Xboxes if their failure rate is worse then the iBook G3 600MHz 16MB-900MHz and iMac G5's put together?
The New Jasper mobos do not fail as much I believe, and because they are awesome.
