This is a stupid ? that im asking

I have to agree with headly on the chipping: gettin' my Xbox chipped with a LPC Mod V2.0 was way easier than gettin' a Magic 3.1 into my V3 PS 2 (actually it isn't done yet).

Only about 9 wires to solder and the Xbox was all set, and disassembling a Xbox is also a lot more easier than disassembling a PS 2.

For the controllers, I like the standard ones more than the S ones. I personally think that the standard Xbox controller is even slightly better than the Dreamcast controller, but actually I never really disliked any original controller for a system.

Btw, instead of backing up on DVDs I'd recommend you consider buying a bigger HD for your Xbox (80 GB or 120 GB). You don't have to switch discs all the time, your originals won't get harmed plus loading procedures for games and apps will be shortened due to faster access times.
