I Just modified my old Atari 7800 to output an s-video signal.
Your best bet to get a good picture on a modern tv is to use an upscaler. The cheap RCA to HDMI converters on Amazon are horrible. If you want a good picture you will need something like a Retrotink 2X-pro. They are pricey, but my nearly 40 year old 7800 now puts out a picture that matches the quality of the new 2600+. If you have multiple systems, I'm sure you can still get RCA switches.
On your RF console, you might check to see if you can get a composite mod installed.

There are also wireless options. I bought one of these and it works well.

Mine just got delivered.
Glad it was on a day that I am working from home. We just started driving in 3 days a week.

My tracking says it's on a Fedex vehicle for delivery by the end of the day today.
I guess we'll see.

ELLSSUU,
How does your package tracking look? Mine shows that it's still in transit to Memphis.
Not holding out hope for a Sunday delivery.
EDIT: Of course it updates right after I post. It only got as far as north Mississippi though.

I just got a shipping notice from Fed Ex. Says it should get here on Sunday.
Something wacky is going on between Gamestop and Eatel's email. None are getting through. Not even making it to the spam folder. :nana:

Happy faces are back!!!! :cheers: :nana: :cheers:
It turns out the email never got to me.
I noticed they did finally charge me and after a quick chat with Gamestop's customer service, I got my order number.

No, I did the "checkout as guest" thing to get my order in quickly since the page said I could make the account after checking out.
It never showed me an option for that or I just didn't see it. To check without an account you need an actual order number.

Did you ever get a confirmation email?

Same here.
I had to add to cart a couple times, but it let me order the same bundle.
Edit: happy faces need to be removed. I never got a confirmation email or charged. :wah:

re: Cyberpunk 2077 - Releasing 7:00 PM EST December 9th

I'm running a 34" ultra widescreen monitor (3440x1440) on a Ryzen 5800x, RTX 3090.
No performance issues aside from a rare micro stutter if it has to load an asset.
What I do get the HUD messing up after the game puts black bars on the sides for cut scenes.
Just curious if anyone else has run into this.

FYI, PC game is playable now.
Just played about an hour and found it starts off well. I haven't had any performance issues or bugs. Playing on a Ryzen 3700x with a 2080RTX.

Not sure if anyone else saw this, but Heatstreet claims it was a hoax.

Earlier this week, the gullible Huffington Post fell victim to a hoax article calling for white men to be stripped of their voting rights. The site became the subject of widespread derision and condemnation after HuffPost editors stood up to defend the article’s content. But as was later revealed, the author submitted the piece to Huffington Post South Africa as a hoax, intending to prove a point about the outlet’s radical leftist stance. He did so under a fake persona masquerading as a feminist activist named “Shelly Garland.” He has since lost his job after being outed by the site.
I recently purchased a Uniden DFR7.
After checking the reviews, I like how it uses gps to show speed and red-light cameras. It also uses the gps for "mute memory".

I switched to Verizon from AT&T today.
I had to sign up for a contract with a new phone (couldn't bring my Galaxy S7 since it was incompatible)
To get the rebate you have to trade your old phone in online to get up to $300 credit, then after you get your last bill you have to send a copy to Verizon to get the rest, up to $650 total.
I'm happy with the signal strength so far. I'm up to 4 bars from 1-2 with AT&T.

I live right next to new River canal off 429. I put a stick near the water line at approximately 11:30 pm. The water is roughly 3 inches past where I put the stick

re: Recommend where to buy a new laptop for work/gaming
Posted by Thran on 4/1/16 at 9:08 am to fr33manator
I bought one of these around the end of last year. It's about $800. It comes with a 256gb SSD, but it does have an extra slot to put a standard laptop hard drive in it.
It runs Fallout 4 ok.
