if u just heat up the solder that is in each hole u can stick each wire in while the solder is hot and hold it in place till it gets cold

r u sure ???????????
yes, but it is better to use pin-header. more stable in the long run. and what is even easier to de-solder the holes with is a de-soldering pump. buy one at radio shack for 5 bux. heat the solder on one side of the board and suck it out from the opposite side. worked like a charm for me. i was done in less than 5 minutes. Do the pinheader and save yourself some possible trouble later on...

to be honest they both can be stable......they both can come in to use yeah sure with the pin header the chip sits right on top everything looks nice and neat....but its to each its own some even had problems with installs with PIN HEADERS some had problems with WIRE INSTALL....mean personally went the wire install way..just heated up the holes and it sucked the wire right in and held them in place, took me only 5 mins to complete it and my xbox v1.0 works like a charge and still does. i mean i also saved the pin header for say if i got another xbox and i just want to swap the chip i dont have to redo the pin header i can just use the 1 i got but like i said above both installs can be stable. they both have there pro's and con's meaning 1 might seem stable and can mess up and install while the other one is the same as well.....so like i said its to each its own i seen post with people messing up on both installs so either way u feel like taken it is no wrong way hopes this helps a little bit.

Milo's 'drama director' discusses emotion-capture (video)

Milo and Kate -- Lionhead Studios' industry-wowing Kinect demo, first revealed at E3 2009 -- has been in limbo following last September's comment from Microsoft Game Studios boss Phil Spencer, who wasn't "convinced" the product would make it to market. We're still waiting with bated breath for news of some kind of playable implementation, but in the meantime, Milo's so-called "drama director," John Dower, has released a video diary featuring the real Milo (well, the mocap actor) and a behind-the-scenes look at creating the emotion within this would-be virtual boy.
