Hey, I gather you don't play XBOX LIVE with your modded XBOX or can you?

if you use a mod chip, you can.

I remember reading a while back that If XBL service detects the chip, they ban your box from the using Live. So, i gather you can use a modded box, but not have the mod chip "turned" on?

Yes, thats a feature on the more expensive chips. If you turn it off, you have a "normal" xbox
