That's the new adapter for the 1.6 XBOXS

[shmokes]

I'm excited to here some reviews of that thing.  It'll have to have some mad precision when it comes to production.  Those points on the top side of the motherboard I tiny.  I know that Team Xecutor is coming out with a full solderless solution for 1.6 boxes.  I've got quite a bit for faith in them.  I REALLY hate the Team Exodus PR guy.  He screams "used car salesman"

thats awesome! Are 1.6 the newest Xboxes out now? Im gonna be doing a good ole walmart switcheroo soon cause my DVD drive is starting to suck on the used one i bought

[shmokes]

Yeah...1.6b is the newest and it initially moved modding an xbox from a 1 wire solder to like 4 or 5 or 6 wires or something.  As usual, the modding community caught right up.

uh, 30 seconds? ok, well the case was already removed. i think it takes a bit longer than 30 seconds to do the whole job.

Right, it took me like 5 minutes just to get the power wire off the back of the HDD!  LOL

If the case is off and the motherboard is out, I could do a 30-second tsop mod.  For a chip install, you would probably want your installer to take a minute or two and do it right.

i'm not quite sure what those wire things are

Pour some hot glue if the connctions arent secure enough

Well I got me a solderless adapter for my xenium ice so I could make sure my motherboard wasn't beyond repair before I soldered it on and it has one of those spring wires for the D0 point...

It has a little hole that it kinda pops into and seems pretty secure.  I would assume that the ones on this new adapter do the same sort of thing.  As long as you're not flipping your xbox on it's lid and smacking the bottom I doubt it'll come out.
