I just learned how I can use my Laptop to hookup to my Xbox 360 to sign onto Xbox Live. now I heard from a friend that doing this is actually bad for your Laptop. is that true? I was hooked up to the router that is in my living room via a 50' Ethernet Cable strung around my house to my bedroom. now I am using my laptops Wireless Internet connection to access Xbox Live by hooking up a shorter Ethernet Cable from my laptops Ethernet Port into the 360's Ethernet Port.
