The point I think Justin was making is that community that hacked the
Xbox was larger than just bunny. And no one would demean the work he
did, but he just was the one willing to post the info about what he
learned, and subsequently gained a higher status from his book. There
were plenty of other hackers out there working on the Xbox, namely
Andy, who were weary of posting any of their findings. (just read
early Xbox-Linux-Devel mailing list posts)

also I personally think it is a bit hypocritical for someone to
publish "findings" on the workings and disassembly of one software
hack when they were part of its creation.
