used em several times at events to feed dozens of monitors around the venue, nice if you can live with something virtually non expandable



It runs a bit loud and the setting are all the way down. both characters are in the same system, and you can see the difference in colors. you can't really read the text. I am using and LED TV so that might be some of the issue


*edit* for the price I can live with it if it last. was planning on picking up a cheap dell i3 $699. I wanted to try it, but I doubt I'll buy another. may still return it and get the dell, I have 14 days.



Sorry it was an i5

Pretty sure I'm returning the Mini Mac. I love my Mac and love the idea of the compact design of the Mini Mac. Here come the buts. It's loud. The harddrive icon is missing, a must for mac users. The top bar is missing. Mac is a bit diffent than windows, the top bar is part of the desktop not the windows. The top bar is where your apple icon is, similar to windows startup menu. None of the fixes I've found has worked yet, and I shouldn't be spending hours fixing a machine that isn't 24 hours old. So it looks like I'll be running a Mac/PC mix. Either the Dell i5 Model: X8300-4004NBK or Samsung i3 Model: DP700A3B-A01US

*edit* Had to remove links because spacebook blocked out my whole post. Added model numbers so you can look them up if interested.

My battlestation.

Yes I will be playing Dust and the big screen is for EVE, PC games, 360, PS3 and the small screen is just handy to have.

Also that hand thing on the left is extremely convenient with the shortcut keys introduced last year, I can switch targets, lock targets, warp to, orbit, keep at range, fire guns etc with just a press of a very convenient and not needed to be looked at because I forget were it is button.

Oh and blue lights make it sci fi. Very important rule.

The left hand thing has been around for awhile, just recently started selling it under the razer name. Formerly sold under belkin brand. If the mouse is the deathadder, i have the same one. love the thumb buttons. Have the razor keyboard and headphones too, all the blue is pimp. The bottom PS3 plugs right into the samsung. Haven't tryed it out yet but it's hooked up.

Yeah, I saw the belkin one but decided on getting a Razer for some reason I can't even remember now, but it has it's uses, especially with being able to remap buttons and create macros.

Yep Deathadder, I'm in love with it, just like my old Habu but not broken Lol

The keyboard is a Saitek II, I've had since I built the computer you see there a few years a go and it's never let me down, though when it does I'll probably go for a Razer keyboard too.

For my monitors I have them both plugged into the same card, but for the big one I use a HDMI lead and when I unplug it to plug into the PS3 or 360, the left monitor becomes the main PC monitor automatically.
When I plug the HDMI lead back into the PC the big monitor becomes the main monitor again, which is extremely convenient.

As for headphones I really want these, completely wireless headsets which are compatible with PC, PS3 and 360... also the audio experience, whether gaming or listening to music/video audio must be much better than my two pc speakers. Unfortunately they cost a quite a lot...
