I got my clearance item care package today and it wasn't quite what I expected.I ordered an FM/TV Tuner cuz my other 4 630 sets only have TV and tuner is dead . . . but it came with another Video Card!  The two Rasterops Clearview/GS30's I ordered came in two very different boxes, but the one with no model # onnit was clearly labeled GS/30 in magic marker . . . but there was a Colorboard 264/SE30 in the box with EVERYTHING except the User Manual!!!!! So I've got a 24bit 640x480 SE/30 card that'll do System 7.5! along with the bigscreen GrayScale SE/30 card!  . . . and the two extra PAS16 LC's I ordered for $2 ea. that I expected to be bare cards were nearly complete packages with CARDS, CABLES AND BREAKOUT BOXEN!!!!!  MUAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAAAAAAAA!!!!!!!!!!!!!
. . . I think I'll go play the lotto now!

If you're not terribly attached to those LC PDS PAS16's, I wouldn't mind buying/trading for one to try one out on my NES/475!666th poster and 666th thread-creator

Just order a few from Shreve at $2 each and see what comes in the box!  btw, my other Rasterops Clearview/GS30 turned out defective too . . . it's not a bigscreen grayscale card for an SE/30, even tho that's what the box, the manual and the nameplate on the slot cover blank for the cable say. But the cable looked wrong according to the description in the manual, so I read the model number on the card itself. It won't even do 1024/768 at 75Hz like I was expecting it to, it'll only do it at 60Hz . . . IN 8 BIT COLOR! It's a freakin Colorboard 108+/30!!!!!!! That's TWO alleged GS/30 cards that turned out to be color cards for $10 ea!  I really AM gonna go play the lotto now!

C.O. AC-130H SpecOps 68kMLAAF p.s. . . . must be onna roll, last night I picked up the ThunderStorm DSP accelerator for using Adobe Premiere with the VideoVision Studio and Photoshop from eBay from my friend. He remembered that he'd found the manual for the VideoVision Studio card he'd given me! Now I've got the whole package except for the original box! Edited by - Trash80toG-4 on 10 Oct 2002 13:09:12 |

go figure. everyone else is getting lucky (NO not in that way... PERVERT!) and you can see me and my world crash down around me. life just likes to build up my hopes that I might accually be happy for an extended period of time, but then everything blows up in my face. thank you for reading my weekly emotional outburst.P.S.
if you DO win the lottery, I'll go insane, and most likely end up killing myself. ThhnXNX
