this isn't really off topic,

You need
1 xbox (version 1.0-1.3 are best since they have hdtv support)
1 USB keyboard
1 USB mouse
xbox-USB convertors (for the keyboard and mouse)
X2VGA (not essential but it lets you plug you box into a standard monitor)
A modchip with an off switch (on for gentoox, off for games)
A copy of gentoox home 3.0c
If you keep an open mind, will your brain fall out?

you can't have windows on your xbox, you can have gentoox which is linux, you can get it from gentoox.shallax.com it's free.
For info about modchips (with and without on/off switches) try xbox-scene
