I used Kodi in its very early days as Xbox Media Center. XBMC turned the original-generation Xbox into a cheap and very functional media center PC - I actually didn't stop using mine until I upgraded to HD in the early 2010s.
More recently, I've been running it on a Raspberry Pi 3A in my kitchen. It interacts with my DVR upstairs, so that I can pause TV there and pick it up downstairs. I credit the fact that it was originally designed to run on the Xbox as the reason it works as well as it does on even the original Raspberry Pi.
I got an XBOX because my late father was a .NET developer and very much into Microsoft technologies so he thought the XBOX was a nifty device. The software on that device was just so lousy. I was into Squaresoft type RPGs/Nintendo 64 era Rare games and the XBOX did not deliver. Only games I ever bought for that console were Shenmue 2 and Blinx the Time sweeper. However that simple 20$ LPC mod chip opened up a world of amazing little games/emulators and tons of entertainment that made the XBOX totally memorable even 20+ years later. The device got hundreds of hours of usage that it would not have otherwise and cemented in my mind the amazing magic of homebrew software. Man I miss those years so much.
Modding my XBOX using a chip my friend was forced to sell me because it got his dad banned from XBOX Live was the best thing that ever happened to me. The first SCMs I ever learned were CVS and SVN in order to mildly tweak and compile my first ever program, XBMC.
It inspired me so much that in my second (or "interests") University of California admission essay I wrote at length about the experience and others like compiling and loading Rockbox on my DAP. In a happy twist, I was still offered a Regent Scholarship to a a few UC campuses. Even ones I didn't apply to.
