The Christmas Thread


I got various bits and pieces and a USA made fender stratocaster, tis all i wanted for chrimbo, plays like a dream, been making the bitch scream since i got her this morning.

Well I've now unwrapped everything...
And it goes as follows:

A frying pan
many vouchers from relatives (and this year my parents aren't up for swapping them for money :( )
I'm pretty sure there was more but I can't remember.

A few surprise full series bootleg animes.
Battery Charger
A working PS2. [mine broke about 2 weeks ago and a week ago was my first day being about 600 miles away from home [takes at least 2 wks to get one repaired] so I figured my temporarily rich dad can either buy one or rent one, which is what might happen.

Family Presents:
A 27 inch flat screen tv.
A really good computer [my dad said it was top of the line less than a year ago to give you an idea...]
and a super powerful telescope

Rico- Are you using dscaler for your GC and TV card? If not, give it a try.
It solved all my Xbox problems with bluriness etc.

I heard dscaler was the way to go. Unfortunately my GC outputs composite (audio l, audio r, video) -> scart. My TV card only accepts s-video, aerial or one composite. Plugging in the video part of the composite didn't really work. Looks like I'll have to buy a scart->s-video converter and an s-video->s-video extension cable :)
