I wouldn't have believed that if I hadn't just tried xlink. I played a lag free game with 2 other people and I was hosting w/ a 256 upload. I run the xlink stuff on my linux box which is plugged into a wireless bridge. Not a stitch of lag for me and the other players said they didn't have any either much to my amazement. XBC seemed much more laggy. Not sure what to attribute it to, xlink, linux, who knows...
Problem w/ xlink is there is *no one* on there. :( XBC has a few more people playing Halo CE but not many more.
I doubt Bungie would open source it soon, but maybe someday they could.

I've had lag free games on XBConnect also. Using a few games against the same people really isn't a good test. I've only tried XLink once, and couldn't find anyone to play, so I ditched it and went back to XBConnect.
