Was doing some looking around Goodwill and was lucky enough to find an Original Xbox for only $25! Got it home and cleaned him up, disc drive didn't work at first but I tinkered and fixed the belt that was getting stuck. Booted up an old copy of Halo 2 and all was well. So happy with this find!

Before the pandemic my local goodwill had dozens of these for five dollars each. Picked a couple up and most worked. You should check the clock cap https://hackaday.com/2020/12/14/save-your-original-xbox-from-a-corrosive-death/
