With Sony Playstation 3 running Yellow Dog Linux, I am sure that you'd like another game console go the same route - I know I would. Don't worry, I found a way to mod the Xbox 360 and install linux on it. You just need to download the application and follow the instructions.

I wonder which one will run Linux faster, though. Maybe it is time to get my university to purchase a PS3 and an Xbox360 for a full-blown head-to-head benchmarking. :)

Word of warning, though - it may brick your game console. Be careful.
