this question may have been asked, but i could not find it on the board. I am going to buy an xbox, which i want to mod. I heard that some models do not work with mod chips and was wondering if anyone could give me some advice as to what version number i should look for. will a new model xbox work with a chip? is there a certain model that i should avoid? what chip do you guys (and girls..

) recomend? sorry if the question is trival, but i googled it and could not find a definate answer. thanks in advance!
