Getting xp to work on an xbox not likely but it has been done with windows 2000 and here is one of the many sites that show that this is a true fact and has been done.

http://news.zdnet.co.uk/software/0,1000000121,2123049,00.htm

but it is true that a xbox is almost 99% pc

Hard Drive
-----------------

The Xbox is the first game console to ever come with a built in hard drive. This is a great feature that they added, which allows many different possible uses. And unlike the PS2, since every Xbox has the hard drive, every game can utilize it somehow. A great feature built in, is where you can save games on the hard drive, which eliminates the need for a memory card. Load times for games can also be reduced by cacheing data on the hard drive, which is faster than loading data off the actual DVD itself. The hard drive is listed on the dashboard as having 50,000+ blocks. The actual amount of blocks available is a little over 300,000. A few sources indicate that there is actually 2 different hard drives being shipped with the Xbox, one being 8 GB, and the other one being 10 GB. Apparently, the Xbox's made in Mexico have the 10 GB hard drive. The extra 2 GB is not actually used on the larger drive, which is kind of a waste.

so i mean the xbox is almost a pc just - the keyboard and mouse.
and can in fact run windows.
