This is too good to be true?

Also since it is from Germany they won't allow you to play any violent video games with the unit. Plug in something violent like Gunstar Heroes, Night Trap or Castle of Illusion and the unit will shut off to protect you. Germany knows best.

Personally I'd rather have that other one if I knew the quality was good (looks nicer, too).

Worry not! I´ve tested the thing with my newly aquired and highly illegal copy of Mortal Kombat 2, and somehow the power of blast processing can overcome the security system. I guess the device can´t handle the 16 Megs of gore at once.

Besides, it´s not about what it looks like from the outside. I can live with a bad ugly device if it grants me a crystal-clear picture.

They sell one in black. I don't really care either way.

True, I forgot about the 16 mega power. Sword of Vermilion nearly destroyed the world with its awesome 5 megas... 16 megs is unstoppable!

Well, I sent an e-mail to Maplin, and it is a MANUAL splitter, I only asked as the company who makes the splitter makes an automatic version. I got a response with the answer I wanted. Right now, my job fucked me over, hardcore.

Well, my job only gave me six hours next week, so if it keeps up... time for a new job then. I'll give 'em two more weeks... maybe one more week if it's that bad.

I was told some guy in my department wrote the schedule. I don't really know, nor do I care too much -- a mini vacation of sorts, and I *just* paid my car insurance, so it's OK for now, but I don't want it to be a weekly thing. If he really did it, I'll get some more hours soon - he's going on vacation in a bit I think the week after, if not... time for a new job. I heard hours where getting cut all-around for part-time people, and I guess there is some truth to it.

The guy who told me who did the schedule is pretty stupid 9 times out of 10... he can't spell the word "Dairy" despite working in the "Dairy" department, doesn't shut the fuck up, EVER, and thinks I lived through the Bilzzard of '77 to name a few. He said we where having problems with scheduling - too many people on some busy days, and too few on slow days. I'll give it a week or two and find out.

Anyway, I am looking at a cheapie one, I just have to see if it is 21 pins. Now that I think about it, I only really need three sockets. One for my Genesis 1 combo, Genesis 2 combo and Saturn. I may just get a new PBC or Genesis 1 system so I can play MS games better.
