@fdurso224 Do you tell those people the Yugo was rated at 24 mpg (4.2 gallons per 100 miles) combined city/hwy?  That's nearly the same as a modern Dodge Durango SUV with 293 HP.

I regret only buying one when they were selling for $20.  Same for the Jaguar.  Should have bought a pallet of each.

15 is nothing if it's sized properly.  Is it a Carrier, Payne or Bryant?

What year monitors do you have?  In the 70s and maybe early 80s some TVs had a sub-power circuit that kept filaments energized for a fast warm up feature.  If you turned on the TV after it was unplugged, it would take much longer for it warm up.  Some had a sub-power switch...you'd flip it to "vacation" to conserve power while out of town.  When I was a kid, I remember looking through the vent holes in the rear of our TV and seeing the filament glow while the TV was turned off.

Do you have a kill-a-watt?  If so, plug your monitors in and see if they draw power while turned off.  It would be interesting to know if something as old as your PET monitor does that.

For fun I just went to CL -> free and searched TV.  Currently 19 CRT TVs for free in my area, many are Trinitron and Wega. No point in settling for something with only a coax. They'll probably have to pay the city dump more than $20 to dispose of that fatty tumor.

I just checked the site out and every title I clicked on has a box to the left with options such as tech help, screen shots and downloads.  Clicking on download works for me.  Try a different browser, or maybe you have an add blocker interfering.

If you're close to a Best Buy, they usually have them in the store.  I've been using mine for years with no problems.  I think they're around $20 bucks.

It's obviously the same song...what does the lyrics translate to?

I finally got a decent mouse on Amazon for about $14 (Inphic). Charges from USB port in under 2 hours and lasts over 2 months with daily use. It goes to sleep so you don't have to remember to turn it off and you can also use it while plugged in and charging. Liked it enough that I another for my desktop.

My old Mircosoft mouse ate up an AA alkaline battery every month and you had to remember to turn it off.

One issue will be getting power to it. Many small rides need at least a dedicated 208 volt 3PH 100 amp feed. That's for commercial/industrial buildings. Where I am, you'll have a second utility bill each month just for that service whether you use it or not. Traveling carnivals always have a few massive generators to power all their rides.

Still sounds interesting, but do you think the fun factor will last more than a week? On the other hand, if you have a huge family and you're hosting a kid's birthday party every other month, you get an automatic dad of the year award.

That's pricey.  If you watched them, you could probably do it yourself next time.  My deep well is 100' down...takes me less than 2 hours and under $400 for a pump and all wear and tear parts from the local big box hardware store.  Only "special" tool needed is a length of threaded pipe with a T and two small nipples at the top in case you accidentally drop it.  Screw the pipe into pitless adapter, pull the cable to disconnect and yank the sucker out.

Is that 28°C? Are you being serious about it being too hot?

One 5mg Melatonin tablet about 30 minutes before going to bed does it for me every time.

Maybe you're taking too high a dose if you're feeling bad the next day.

They advertised with a specific motherboard and photos of that board.  Item is not as advertised. They screwed themselves.

Even the QC sticker is in a different orientation. Looking at feedback and your conversation, seller appears to be an asshole who loves the term jack off. I wonder if he/she has a store and mouths off to people like that in person?

That should work perfect.  Many don't realize they need a null cable or adapter.  As I'm typing this, my Model III is hooked to my desktop using the 25 pin ribbon cable, 25 to 9 adapter, null modem adapter and then the USB to serial.  It works flawless.  It also works perfect with my Atari 130XE SIO2PC adapter and APE software. No longer need to drag out the old PC with real RS232 ports.

I paid $11 for mine at the local Best Buy.  They're usually $20 but they always seem to offer open box for much less; mine was sealed in the blister pack.  My three local Best Buy stores show them in stock (curb side pickup).

They also work 100% perfectly, which isn't usually the case for no name drop ship China junk.

Do you also have a null modem?

Over 1" of snow?  "Normal" thing to do is panic and run to the grocery store and stock up on milk, bread and TP.

Sorry to tell you, but your area has now gone beyond pandemic and is entering the apocalyptic phase! lol

I canceled Netflix several years just because of those autoplay ads.  Maybe I wasn't the only one and they figured out that annoying crap was losing customers.  Can't say I've missed them one bit as Prime has been far more enjoyable imo.

I have the Bandai labeled version called Packri Monster.  It's the best handheld version of Pac Man that I know of. 

If they were acting that weird, I'd be worried about what they did to my food.

Did it come with service records and did he have a ppi done by a 928 specialist?  If not, some things needs to be checked asap.  Engine is interference...regular timing belt, water pump and tensioner replacement is critical.  All rubber fuel lines need to be replaced...it WILL eventually catch fire if they are original.  Original high pressure power steering hose is also a fire hazard.  If automatic, thrust bearing end play needs to be checked and tension off the torque tube needs to be released by loosening a clamp.  It's an engineering design flaw that allows the torque tube to creep forward and put pressure on the flex plate and thrust bearing.  If driven long enough, internal engine boring starts and you won't know the damage is happening until the engine is completely destroyed.  That area is easy to access and check during oil changes and improved aftermarket clamps exist.

Being a member of Rennlist forms is a must for 928 owners.  

My great nephew's name in Damien.  He just turned 8.

I really like Data Age games.  If you like Warplock, try Encounter at L-5.  That was one of those $5 games that made you feel like you hit the lottery.  It's still one of my favorite 2600 games.  Makes unique use of the paddle controller too.
