Hello, first I would like to say I honestly don't know if this is the correct place to post this and that I'm sorry if it is.

I am not very smart when it comes to computer type of things, but this came onto my mind while I was thinking of cool things that could be done with an xbox360. So I was thinking if it would be possible for a motherboard to have another motherboard like the 360s connected to it and run it as an application(if someone were to code an application for it)? I'm not sure if I am describing this very well, but if anyone understands what I'm trying to say please reply to this.

There would have to be some modification, a lot actually. It can be done, it would be more of making the Xbox into c computer rather than the other way around if you know what I mean.

Do you know if it has been done before?

You're mixing hardware with software, which means what you're thinking of won't work.

There are pre-built computers that have 360's components in them, I tried to find it online, but I couldn't. Through a bit of digging, you should be able to find it.

Fitting all that stuff into a 360 case, though, would be more difficult, as there isn't much room in there as is.

In that case (No pun intended), it's very possible and it has been done. It's like 7 grand, though, so it would be advised just to make it yourself.

Do you know of anyone who has done this that may be able to provide me with a short and basic step by step to make one?

No, I have only seen it in that one retail product.

It wouldn't be hard, though, just get an excessively large case, a smaller mobo, and some extra holes for mounting.
