Red face Can I have "Live" with 360 & Original?

I'm currently on "Live" with my Original Xbox & am "itchin" for a 360! Problem is, I talked my brother into getting an Original Xbox last year when the price dropped so we could play online together. He's not willing to "plunk down" for the 360 just yet and I don't want to be unable to hook-up with him just because I wanna upgrade. Can I have a "Live" account for BOTH systems?

HELP!

You can play any xbox game with him, just on your xbox, as long as he has the game too.

Thanx for your reply...
So does that mean I can be playing on an xbox 360 and he can be playing on original xbox but the game We are playing has to be an original xbox game that is "backwards compatible" on my 360 system? Is there a list somewhere that shows all the original games that are backwards compatible?
Thanx again

Thank you very much Gee. That Link gave me alot of GREAT information.
Soooo, of course I'm gonna push my luck and ask another question!

My current "Live" acct. ends mid Feb. Of course I want a "Gold" acct for my 360. Do I have to buy the gold acct card in the store when I buy my system or will "Live" automatically give me that choice (since I currently have a silver acct) when I first fire up my new 360?

Thanks everyone for your help.

If that's the case, here's another post for you to be even closer now. Go get a 360.
