Apparently the people banning modified 360s "have been given instructions to push for a million banned accounts by the time the holidays are over." Since those banned 360s become pretty crippled (apparently they can't even use their HDDs anymore), will this force 1 Million people to buy new consoles?

As far as I know MS only ban consoles from Live. They can still use their HDD and console.

Gone is the ability to install games on hard drive.

Also gone is the ability to use multimedia features when connecting it to a PC.

And finally, gone is the ability to use your Profile online without losing gamerscore. So any gamerscore you get when playing on a banned xbox is wiped when you connect online.
