I have two original xboxes, both running xbmc, mainly for divx/xvid avi playback...if the 360 can now do it then they're no longer required - which will please the missus.

I still keep my original xbox around, runing XBMC, although 360 supports divx xvid they dont support all formats especially if you have a large collection youll find a very small amount dont work or dont run smoothly.

These is where XBMC kicks ass and plays everything, I have even got one hidden in the bathroom for streaming MCE recorded tv as well as xvid/divx andmusic through smb support, plays on a 15" lcd wall mounted.

Theres many reasons to keep it on the shelf you just have to convince the wfe.
