Andrew "bunnie" Huang's PhD Graduation Ceremony from Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2002
01
Artifact Overview
When Andrew "bunnie" Huang used a screwdriver to open his Microsoft Xbox, he willingly opened a legal Pandora's box. Marketed as a simple gaming system, the Xbox was actually a powerful computer with locked down features. Huang's modifications unlocked the system's full potential--and challenged copyright law. His book, "Hacking the Xbox," is a controversial guidebook for the "mod-chipping" movement.
