Can I connect to different xbox360's with one Live Account?

I picked up a 2nd xbox360 for cheap and want to know if I can log in using same profile and live account I have on my other xbox.
I don't plan on playing on both xboxes at the same time so is this possible?

yes, but you need a memory unit. Basically you keep your profile on the MU and stick it into whatever xbox you want to log into.

You can recover your profile though, but it's a very long and tedious process. It's a big pain in the ass in other words. Don't do it. Just get a memory card.

Or, you could disconnect the HD and plug it into the other unit as well. That would work.

Yeah, just buy a memory card and move your profile on it. Swapping HDs work, but I wouldn't do it too often.

Why is this a tedious process? I want to know what I'm getting into if I plan to get a X360. All my X360 shiznit is on my bro's X360 but I could care less about my save games.

because you have to recover the account, which takes like 3-5 minutes of downloading your profile from the internet... and then it becomes invalid on the other console... rinse, repeat...
