    All thats happened is a guy has developed an "open source" driver. But if you look into it even he admitts there is LOTS of work to be done cleaning it up and making it functional.

    Although if he releases his driver others will progress his work. Its not hacked in the sense of its oriiginal purpose as a xbox360 addon.

    what makes me laugh is that microsoft is a PC related developer - you would have anticipated that they would develop and release their own variant - rather than waiting for someone to hack and do it to them
