    hey, just thought I'd pop back in here to say that it to put the 1351 mouse into 1350/joystick mode you have to hold the right mouse button down when you turn the system on... and that it appears to work with the 2600 this way.

    Damn!........., guess which one I have.

     

    I know that if you hold one of the mouse buttons down on a 1531 when you turn the commodore on it is supposed to go into 1530(joystick) mode... I can't remember which button, but there's only two so it wouldn't take long to figure out... I don't know if this would work on something other than a commdore but you could allways try.

    I don't mean to be such a sap, but... AWWWWWW!  Tyler's so CUTE!!!

     

    Yeah... He was my favorite cat. Too bad he dissapeared a few days before I finally finished working on the gallery. :-(

     

    He used to sleep with me. And he'd wake me up in the morning by licking my hair..... And he used to get on my lap and put his chin on the space bar. Some of his fur is still stuck to my stereo speaker where he brushed up against it....I havn't brushed it off yet..but I know eventually I'll have to. He's gone..and I know that at this point, it's highly unlikely he'll show up. :-(

    That's a nice setup you have there.... You have an old stereo receiver and a cat that look almost exactly like mine. I'll bet that stereo is pioneer, 1975-1977 perhaps? My golden oldie is being used as the garage stereo.

     

    ?

     

    The receiver is a Pioneer SX-737 from 1976. I bought it along with the speakers at a garage sale for $50 when I was in junior high...that would be in '98. I have a print out of an old magazine ad for it up on the wall above the closet...you can see it in the second to last picture in the gallary

    Are the CDs, music Cds or like AOL Cd's?

    Just wondering.

    Thanks for sharing SuperPsycho!!

    Cool set up, in spite of pink radio.

     

    They are mostly AOL CD's. There are some Earthlink, MSN CD's.. something called Kids net, A few old MacAddict disks, Other disks.. Bad CD-Rs.... old back ups....old copies of turbotax...etc....

     

    Oh please tell me my kids aren't going to want to stick CDs all over their ceiliing at some point in their lives, or at least some point while I'm still providing their housing.

     

    They are all stuck in via thumb tacks. When I move out I get to spackal all the pin holes and paint the room.

    Actually C128 doesn't use composite video in 128 mode, only in 64 mode.  You can still get composite out of 128 in 128 mode by building an adapter to get RCA plug from the RGB port but it'd be in mono only.  Or you could get a little technicial and build an RGB ro composite adapter but I don't know how right now.

     

    Does it still do separate chroma/luma in 128 mode?

  9. Posted

    I guess I'll have to look at the comm128 again,

     

     

    The port right next to the serial port(which you plug disk drives into) is the A/V port. It puts out separate chroma/luma, Composite Video, and Audio. I'm fairly certain it's got the same pinout as the C64's A/V port so a cable being sold as a C64 A/V cable should work.

     

    just take a look at this picture.

    Commodore 128

     

    huh? Why is that on this list? :?

     

    It allready does RGB, Compsite Video, separate chroma/luma(s-video) and Audio output...what exactly are you looking to do that it doesn't do?

     

    Original 5200

     

    As for that.... you should check out this. I have that in my 5200 and it is really nice.

    GameStop? Whats all this about GameStop? I almost never go into that store because I think their prices suck. I think the last time I bought something from them it was a big load of Atari 2600 games that I saw when I was trying to get a job.

     

    If they start putting all their used games on clearance I might take a look to see if they actually have any good prices. But once they don't have any used games I won't much reason to go there at all. I usually buy new games online.

     

    I've never traded anything in there....though I did once buy a used N64 game from them when the N64 was still Nintendo's latest. I decided the game sucked and sold it to some other store...only took a $2 loss on it...was expecting worse.

    Well, you could allways buy another one from MCM...or you could go to the goat store if buying one on e-bay makes you a little nervouse.

     

    By the way.. I could swear that the picture in the second, more expensive auction is the same pictur that MCM electronics used to have on their own product page...the picture with the blue background.

    I'm needing a new connector on my nes also, but i didnt see them at the goat store.

     

    I was in a hurry to get to work so I didn't double check to make sure they still stocked them. Anyway, like I said, MCM is still around (they have changed their main web address though, it's no longer i-mcm.com but instead http://www.mcmelectronics.com/) and you can be sure theirs are legit.

     

    Though if someone says that a certain e-bay seller sells the real deal for sure and not just "referbished" junk then you might want to consider buying from that e-bay seller as MCM tends to charge a bit high for shipping on smaller packages.

    very very nice setup.. I like the CDs on the wall thing... Also, I have an old stereo recevier that looks almost the same as yours mines a pioneer, and I'm sure yours is too.. I also have a cat that looks almost exactly like yours.....lastly, what are the specs on your power mac?

     

    The receiver is a Pioneer SX-737 from 1976. I bought it along with the speakers at a garage sale for $50 when I was in junior high...that would be in '98. I have a print out of an old magazine ad for it up on the wall above the closet...you can see it in the second to last picture in the gallary

     

    The PowerMac is a Dual G4/450Mhz model.

    One 30GB drive, one 40GB drive.

    512MB of RAM (I think I might up it to 1GB in a month or two)

    Mac OS X 10.3.2

    ATI Radion 8500 w/ 64MB of VRAM.

    I have a SCSI card in it but I havn't had a use for SCSI in a while.

     

    Anyway, Those CD's aren't on the wall, they're on the ceiling.

    I've got one Model 1 Genesis/Sega CD setup with 32X and one model 2 Genesis/Sega CD setup. I was originaly thinking about selling the model 2 setup..but I changed my mind and decided to keep both setups.

     

    I've got a few extra model 1 Genesis units.

     

    I've got both a model 1 and model 2 Lynx. I should get a comlynx cable.

     

    I would like to get a 2nd GameGear and a link cable for two player purposes.

     

    I have two Apple //c computers.

    An impressive setup you have there,

    SuperPsycho! I won't ask about that

    pink radio on the shelf, because you

    will probably 'claim' that it's not yours.

    Anyhow, thanks for sharing your pics!

     

    Well, it wasn't mine to begin with. It used to be my sister's... just like my walkman used to be my sister's..and under fairly similar circumstances. The Antena broke off the radio... she chucked the radio in the garbage. I pulled it out of the garbage, opened it, and got my dad to solder a long peice of wire to where the antenna attatched on the circuit board and strung it through the hole the antenna screwed into. Presto, one free radio that works just fine.

     

    I am not at all imbarassed to own a Pink radio.

    Well, I posted this on PlayNintendo forums allready but I just figured I'd post it over here too.

     

    I recently finished putting up a gallery showing off where I have all my stuff... Anyway since I'm sure none of you have things better to do than look at my small collection(or perhaps some of you are just looking for a distraction from something you just might be supposed to do...) anyway....

     

    To reach The Lab just click the www button on my post, click the big ugly enter button, scroll past all the boring crap on the main page(or read it... that's your decision) and click "The Lab".

     

    ...or just click here for a more direct rout.

    I've been using IGN's game tracking service to track my collection... whenever I've want to add a game that isn't in their database allready I've been able to e-mail them with the system it's for, the name of the game, the publisher...maybe a developer and perhaps a release date and they've added it for me... They even added a section for Apple IIgs games because I e-mailed them about it.

     

    I like using an online system because it's cross-platform and I can give just about anyone a link to it and have them be able to view it without downloading any software to their computer.
