    Not that bizarre. The KVM is interpreting the signal as if it were coming from a PS/2 port. If you have 2 USB input plugs leading to an single USB output plug, then it's probably treating the connection like it would if you has a PS/2 keyboard and mouse conected. A PS/2 keyboard and mouse can use a single USB connector.

    Gee, they must not have anything better to do... If they're spending time reading internet forums and blogs... is this what they're paid to do? And of all places, here?

    They must not have many good ideas if they have the time to read our little forum... Instead of wasting time on side-quels, why not focus that energy on rebooting the franchise and not ride on the coat tails of Macross, Mospeada, or Southern Cross. Make the show unique. But I guess "nostalgia" prevents that from happening....

    It's probably the wireless input devices. I know Belkin makes KVMs with USB, but whether they support wireless devices is something I'm not sure of. I do know that they will work with/without video input from the KVM. But my experience is with the server-rack models, not the consumer/home models.

    Have you considered a KVM with USB? The KVM may not like wireless input devices or the Mac doesn't like KVMs. My experience with KVMs is somewhat limited to Belkins so I can't recommend other brands.

    For goodness sake, the Thundercats reboot premieres in 5 days. If the freakin' Thundercats can do it, why not Robotech, if it's such a inspiring show.

    Gee...thought that was due to the successful animated series. Not sure how a show about giant robots influenced a show about martial arts and uses a whole bunch of Eastern religion concepts in its plot and story.... Here's a bright idea, why not use all of RT's "influence", "'tech-saviness", and awe-inspiring story and characters and influence a rewrite so it doesn't continually lean on 3 unrelated shows from the 1980s. No more animation discontinuities, explanations of weird tech or story points, etc. Heck, DC Comics just rebooted their entire freakin' universe to make it appeal to new readers. Transformers has done it twice within the past few years with their successful cartoons. Use that awe-inspiring "influence" to influence a freakin' reboot. But then you would need competent people for that...

    They're concept posters. IIRC, I saw the Mark VI armor on the Captain America-after credits trailer.

    Little from column A, little from column B. Robotech Frontier, Robotech 7, Robotech Plus, etc..... we've heard it all before. Don't even get us started on them incorporating other series, like Gundam or Evangelion...
  14. azrael
    Transformers...1984. Robotech....1985. Frak it... I'm using it.

    $569.99 for the new model is not a bad price for a local store pickup. You could drop another hard drive because it has the room in there but you'd need a special connector which you'll probably never find, unless you're in one their production plants... Apple is trying to push its cloud services and downloads over physical media. The irony is, ISPs are pushing data caps and some are starting to scale back home internet service in favor of 4G wireless. And with tiered data speeds, I'm not sure Apple's mostly-download idea is gonna stick, especially with limited data caps and speeds. That's one of my gripes with how they are distributing OS X Lion this week. 3.76GB is a long download for most home users.

    Avengers poster making it's way around CCI.

    What do you think is paying for this sidequal? That what this whole "complete collection" is for. They needs more monies to make "quality products" for dem "rabid hordes" of RT fans.
  20. azrael
    And what shape would that be? Thanks to inflation, I'm sure this franchise is making more than it did in 1985, but then I would have to account for inflation and rework those numbers. So these Battle pods are made of crack or something? Is this Battle pod toy the Tickle-Me-Elmo of our time or something cuz I'm not seeing anything in the news or anything....

    Slight Avengers news... The modern suit is on display at the Marvel/Avengers booth at CCI: http://i.marvelousnews.com/g/index.php?mode=view&album=2011_San_Diego_Comic_Con%2FMovie&pic=IMG_5158.jpg&dispsize=600&start=0 Another shot: http://www.superherohype.com/news/articles/167949-sdcc-comic-con-2011-gallery-update And some of the reviews coming out of CCI sound like the 3D is more of a distraction than feature.

    They got one of the mid-size/large panels rooms. BUT....The Vertigo panel is before them and the Garth Ennis: Stitched world-premiere panel and Torchwood: Miracle Day Episode 103 follow that panel so you have to ask how many people are actually camping in there for those panels. Additionally, it's scheduled from 7-8PM. But we all know the 1st and last (minus the dealer room) days of these conventions are the lightest. http://www.comic-con.org/cci/cci11_prog_thu.php

    Thought this was a good for a laugh: Sony: some producing poor quality 3D And a good quote from the article:

    Well, the new Mac Minis are using Sandy Bridge with their Core i5s, so despite losing dedicated graphics, it's not that bad of a graphics loss. I won't plan on gaming but if it's just for web, I won't see it as that much of a lost. If I were you, I'd probably hunt for the previous model. Since most places will probably be trying to get rid of their stock they're probably gonna reduce the price, I'd snatch one up if I could find it. Assuming you'll find it for cheap. If I could find a previous model below the current Mac Mini's price of $599, I'd probably grab it. Like here: http://www.macmall.com/p/Apple-Mac-Mini/product~dpno~8160087~pdp.gbihacg
