Hi everyone. I wanted to know if there was a way I could save my live profile on two different boxes so I don't have to keep toting my memory card to each one. Anyone know of a way? Thanks.

Coming April 6, 2010 you should be able to use any USB Device.
Im pretty positive you CANNOT have 1 profile on 2 machines AT ONCE. Reason for this is when you connect to LIVE it will try to update the gamertag, and then one of them will be overwritten!

You can't have two usable ones because you have to recover the account on the machine your going to use it on. So you can have the profile on both, but if you go to the second one you'll have to recover the profile from xbox live on use it on that console. Then if you try to go back and log into the account on xbox number 1, you will have to recover it to that xbox to be able to log onto live. It kinda blows because on the old xbox you could just throw your gamertag on a memory card and use it wherever you wanted to.

No, I do not think that will work unless you recover the profile from Xbox Live using the Profile Recovery Tool. The reason this will most likely not work is because in your profile is a Profile and Device ID. If the console ID is different, I'm pretty sure your Xbox 360 will refuse to accept the profile. But I do know for a fact that the Console and Device ID's can be changed, but must be re-hashed and re-signed. You can always use the Profile Recovery Tool, but only one of them will be allowed to connect on Xbox Live at once, and when done on one xbox, the other xbox/xbox's must have their profiles recovered again to go on Xbox Live. Although, you can try to copy the profile to another device using something like a XPort or XSata. But like ForAHobby said, one of them will be overwritten with a code not allowing you to access xbox live unless you re-recover the profile again.
