They might have stuck a pc (or a mac) in the case though? Who knows. :-) @ ANNON

Your just bypassing all the stuff that makes its gaming console and using the computer parts inside. The 360 has way more power then any osx86 project pc iv seen.

At the very end the shutdown squence seems right, but someone could have just pulled the plug from the external power supply for the 360 to get that effect. 5 seconds from the time he touches the power button and it lights up, to the first look at the BIOS, seems like a long time to wait to see anything, since the 360 usually has a boot type screen within a second of power.

A (three core) PowerPC processor of course. The only thing that makes me wonder is the somewhat of a BIOS screen at the beginning of the video. OS X might just be running on a differnt PC (OSX86) that we can't see (in the video).
