How about formatting it a little better so we can read it.

And you're installing you get no sympathy from me. Sorry.

I'm much to lazy to figure out what is going on with those replys. Explain it.

So do you think I should come out guns a blazin or should I go
peacefully? Maybe I can write a book while I am in there telling my
story of a life of crime, booze and women. Maybe you can help me
publish it since you are part of the reason I am going to jail, I mean
credit is due where it is deserved.

So tell me, in which forum did you hear about me?

Maybe we can be penpals when I am in jail. What part of the country
are you from?

Heh, the fact that he said the police will be dropping by at a specific time made me chuckle. And on that note, I know a lot of cops and police dispatchers, and I'd say MAYBE 2 out of 50 or so would actually know what a 'mod chip' is.

:)

Have fun in jail!

Maybe you should mask out his email address.

I don't know what kind of response you want from us... congratulations? :confused:

I don't think the modchip itself is illegal, but the BIOS on the chip is. So, as long as you sell one that isn't flashed, you're fine.

Well, I think it's kinda funny. Cute at very least.


Methinks maybe he gets off on videos of guys soldering. Who can blame him, though?

Ohh trust me I know the laws. It is not flashed. I do nothing illegal.

I don't expect a congratulations. I dont expect much actually.

No I didn't expect to get $250. I didn't expect to do it. I get alot of emails about stuff like that and no one actually wants it.

LoL. That kid must be 13 or something. Afterall, you're not selling a modchip. You're selling a video of how it is modchipped. Tell him to cry a river.

The modchips are not illegal, the installation of a modchip is not illegal and the bios being flashed isn't illegal (as long as the bios is legal to distribute, like the cromwell one). The DMCA does not a apply to hardware modifications of electronics that you own.

Now flashing the bios with a modified MS bios is illegal because it's software piracy.

Exactly. And they all have cromwell bios on them. So there really isnt an issue. I just think this is funny talking to the kid.
