xbox question


HI

I have simple questions i would like to ask after browsing this forum and other "lesser" places on the web.

- Can I install windows programs on xbox ?
( i would like to abble to install autocad in it)
- What is the difference between xbox and a similar pc (is it the price?)

• Intel Celeron 733 MHz CPU
• nVidia GeForce 3MX
• 64 MB of RAM
• 8/10 GB hard disk
• DVD drive
• 10/100 Ethernet

- Does anyone here tried it already ? is it good ?


Anything else about this matter is welcome, thanks


BTW : it looks like they had a whole lot of celeron processors that no one was interested in

No you can't install windoze program. The xbox runs on a minimal win2k kernel. The only way to run any program is to install linux on you xbox. though you could run windoze prog through wine.
