If yesterday's video from GameTuts made you eager to convert your shiny new Xbox One console into a "dev kit," you may want to think twice



From Engadget:

Though the video comes with a warning about the boot loop-inducing error that an incorrect Sandbox ID can trigger, we reached out to Microsoft for some clarity on the matter. As you might expect, the folks in Redmond advise against taking matters into your own hands as "this alone does not turn the console into a developer kit." Of course, you're also running the risk of bricking your device while futzing around. If you've already embraced your sense of adventure, navigating to "Restore Factory Defaults" from the System Settings pane will get your recent investment back in its proper working order while waiting for official developer access.
