It depends on how you soft mod, a hot swap for example is quite risky where as a memory card and game exploit is really quite simple but you should be warned that only original copies of the game (mechassault, 007) will work, platinum versions will not.
as for your question xbox mod or dc, well it depends what you want. After reading your old posts it looks like gba is high on your agenda which makes the decision easy xbox......however there are a shitload of cool dc games out there making a decision like yours hard.....if you are hard up for cash and know someone else with a modded xbox you can always do a hot swap, that will not cost you a dime.
to answer your first question though....I don't personally know since my xbox is chipped but I do know that I decided on a chip over softmod since at the time surreal did not work on the softmod although this seems to be ammended. |If you have any other questions then check out the softmod forum on www.xbox-scene.com.

Does it matter what version of Xbox I have?

this is a pretty good layman's terms guide to softmodding.
your xbox version should not effect the softmod.

Thanx for the link but now I think I know everything about softmodding it myself, but there is one thing.....
I cant FTP the files to my Xbox nor do I have a DVD burner to burn the files to DVD......so I need to know how to copy all the homebrew files to a CDR and then transfer them to my Xbox.....I spent a few hours yesterday reading through the Xbox-Scene forums but couldnt find the answer.....
Oh, and I still plan on doing it....being broke sucks....

you can use cdr-w media on the xbox. Unless you have a samsung drive that came with earlier models which can read standard cdr's you will just have to use rw's.
there are a couple of autoinstaller discs such as slayers and firef#ckers but I would reccommend making one yourself based on evox and xbox media centre so that way you could flash the bios, set up the dashboard and have a file manager to transfer emulators and homebrew via cdr-w.
If you need any more help then pm me and I can maybe guide you through step by step.
have fun....
