HAX BITCHES!

Lifehacker has a great how-to up detailing the steps you need to take in order to use Netflix's Watch It Now service through your 360. I've been readily impressed with the quality of that service and I'm excited to try setting this up on my own. Over at their site they have all the details but here's a list of what you'll need in order to set it all up:

1. An Xbox 360

2. Windows Vista with Vista Media Center (it's included by default in Vista Home Premium and Ultimate)

3. A Netflix subscription

4. The freeware vmcNetflix plug-in
