Omega-TI #2 Posted December 31, 2020 Cool topic for a thread, but what exactly is the accepted definition of "modded" for this thread? Very interesting control panel... 2 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Schmitzi #3 Posted December 31, 2020 I accept all 😁 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
JB #4 Posted December 31, 2020 That is a beast of a 4a right there. Mine's at the "I removed the greasy nasty felt" level of mod. Nothin' worth showing off. 1 1 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
mizapf #5 Posted December 31, 2020 When I see Schmitzi's new avatar, I wonder what happens if we play some Slim Whitman yodlers. 😛 1 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Omega-TI #11 Posted January 1 You've got me beat @Schmitzi, the only unique modification I've done is the temperature gauge and some power switches. 2 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
+Ksarul #12 Posted January 1 What is funny on the Mars Attacks! thing is that She-Who-Must-Be-Obeyed was recording a message for her sister tonight, and when she played it back to listen to it, all the two of us could hear was: Ack! ACK! AckAck! Ack! We both looked at each other and laughed. . . 1 1 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

GDMike #14 Posted January 1 (edited) My right side PEB houses my tape drive and a couple hard drives with a pc desktop for a power supply, but not shown clearly and completely is my regular PEB that is attached to this monitor.

Omega-TI #17 Posted January 2 @GDMike How many functions do you use on that << 5.25 Dashboard >>? Besides monitoring the P-Box temperature and controlling a couple of fans, it looks like a guy could... 1) Route the SD card for a TIPI there. 2) Route power to the USB's to charge a cellphone or something. 3) Route audio there for whatever reason. 4) _________________________________________? The price looks reasonable too. 1 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
GDMike #18 Posted January 2 (edited) I had a plan to do exactly that, then things happened to get in the way of the project. But one day I will get to it. Rt now it's realtime temp, 2 hard drives. Edited January 2 by GDMike Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
