The Inferno Out: How to make Inferno stop chewing on the Christmas JTAG

I just sent an N64 to Ireland, didnt cost much at all (but i did send it 2nd class so hope it dont take to long)

Lucky you, man....


I do the consoles locally, and the hand-helds/games/acc. Internationally.

What also hurts my wallet is that I only ship First Class, with full Customs' ID and all....

The sad fact is, I have tons and tons of stuff that I know folks could really use, but not with the USPS gouging like this... We have really cut-back on E-Bay as well, due to this. I wont play the 'Nationalist/Racist/cant-be-bothered-asshole' and NOT ship to my partners abroad, so I just avoid selling via E-Bay PERIOD. Its really too bad.... :(


I once got a quote for an N64 with games going to Italy....THIS is how I looked/felt when I left the Post Office:
(I had asked the fecker if he was going to personally SWIM it to Italy at that price.....my wife asked me to 'relax, honey'....)
:drag:

The funny thing is that when I was selling a lot of my gaming wares on eBay, I ended up developing a friendly rapport with the UPS associate. After a while he would actually scold me for how much I was paying for shipping my games to people. I know UPS is more expensive, but I've had some unfortunate situations occur when mailing or receiving larger, fragile electronics.

Don't judge the postmen. They will go that far to deliver a package safely. Yeah, they are heroic and they care about their customers.

My postal workers are nice with all my packages, never had trouble.

If you have trouble with your postman, get his name and report him to the local Post Master.

They will never give you up, and let you down. For they are postmen, in the harshest weather they go, to the house beyond.

I'd use Fedex if I wasn't using USPS. I've seen UPS workers throw other packages around in search of mine on quite a few occasions.

:toss:

I've had packages arrive late, beat up, and witnessed workers throwing other packages out of the way with UPS. As opposed to having nothing but good experiences with the USPS and Fedex.

GBATemp is affiliated with a few, might check there. The store I bought my card from doesn't ship to the US anymore. (And I can't remember the url :P).

You are indeed. :awesome:

My speakers came today for my PC...the one that I was trying to fix, when I thought it was the ram and bought new ram, then thought it was the power supply and bought a new power supply, and it turns out it was the power supply + the motherboard all along :wacko:

It was a cast off anyhow so I think its time to start getting parts for a new PC.

Not really sure, man. We have AceKards, they seem to be fine for us....

Those SDs, though, yes; just pop one in.

I use an M3Real. It's very simple to use with the regular firmware, though Sakura is better.

Yeah, I've got the mircosd R4 and it just works like that. You have to put the games in a folder and you can then run it directly.

Going to build something powerful, or midrange? You can put together something pretty nice for under $1000.

Engle, yep, I figured as much. I know that there are several of these, but not sure what the 'real' difference is between 'em, if any...

Take it however you please. Some cards have better hardware, IE. play GBA from slot one.

Tempted to go nuts, going to buy parts that I know I can get away with keepiing for a while (such as case, hd and power supply) processor motherboard and ram is going to be the last parts (I can get the graphics card when I figure out what I want) will have to wait til I get christmas out of th way.

"Take it however you please", eh? Thats what my ex-girlfriend said to me on our first date. :crikey:



Yeah, have heard of that before, about Slot 1. These devices are cheap enough, I probably ought to buy one of each at some point, to test them against each other.

I heard of something called 'CycloDS' a little while back, I'm assuming its one of these cards...


Stark, go nuts, its only money!

If you're going ATI, make sure you avoid 7K cards if they are out by the time you buy. A late series 6K card will last you quite a while.

I'll be sure to remember that. Probably will buy a case, HD drive (2tb if I can afford it) 650 power supply (should be enough I reckon) and a DVD re writer, then come on here asking for suggestions :D

I'd better scoot off, need to get some stuff done before I head to bed :( gotta get up at 2am

Catch you later :)

For real! I give up trying to understand the bulk of it, man.....

I think I have it in me to get a fairly good handle on emulation, but as far as getting into the nuts and bolts of computer tinkering, h-e-l-l n-o!

'Apps', 'Androids' , '4Gs'....blechhh...my head spins...

I am interested in these 'tablet' things that I have been seeing, though. Supposedly, they will be wiping-out whats left of the laptop market in the near future. They are very Trek-looking, and seem very user-friendly. I see them for as low as $80, at retail, but I'm not educated enough on them to take the plunge.....yet...

I suppose that I'll have to swap my beloved PSPs for IPADs, one day...

Jesus it's a laptop with an upgraded processor which SHOULD run hotter than the old one, but it doesn't thanks to cooling mods. There, you happy now?
