--Pete Posted August 16, 2011 Report Posted August 16, 2011 You all would not believe how bad this looks on an old 14" AOC flat screen. My beautiful 27" Apple Cinema monitor bit the dust just about the same time that John upgraded the site. I had an hour or two of wide-screen views of the new site before I lost it. Now I'm viewing on a very old monitor which is sitting behind me on a roll-around cart. Type a few words, turn around to check, fix all the errors and try again. I went out this afternoon and bought a new Apple monitor, but discovered that is no longer has a VESA mount, or a DVI input. Several raging hours later, I find that when Apple says Guaranteed next day delivery($$$), they mean Next day after they get around to shipping it, which might be several days. Don't expect to see me much until Wednesday or so when I can get some kind of decent monitor hooked up to this computer. ( And I think that avatar is a bit silly looking.) Quote
JasonOsteo Posted August 16, 2011 Report Posted August 16, 2011 But, you know you have to keep up with the latest suite of apple madness. Meanwhile, my last win is winging it's way to me and I will be keeping my head down, just in case I win this one too. (Smileys broken here for some reason, but I am on a mac so probably my end) Quote
Reef Runner Posted August 16, 2011 Report Posted August 16, 2011 Reef Runner - Thank you for the offer. I will accept on the condition that we get together sometime and you can help me to fly it. After all, we are in the same state. Photomom - Are you kidding ? Really, seriously, you DO NOT own a rev ?? Quote
photomom Posted August 16, 2011 Report Posted August 16, 2011 Reef Runner - Seriously, I do not own a Rev. I only started flying quads five months ago. I have a Vamp Devil by Flying Wings which I absolutely love. I also have a vintage Spirit Quad by New Tech. I've tried the Volksquad and don't like it. Bungies keep breaking while flying, not while crashing. LOL. Jason - I have posted on a old Macbook and a new iMac the past two days and I've no trouble with the smileys. Something else is going on. Haven't checked other features yet. kjm Quote

Jeepster Posted August 27, 2011 Report Posted August 27, 2011 Pssst, John ... don't forget that the drawing is tomorrow ... just a few short hours away. Sure could use a nice crisp sail. 3hr 43 minutes left ... Cheers, Tom Quote
Wayne Dowler Posted August 27, 2011 Report Posted August 27, 2011 You needing glasses?? Looks like the date in the topic says 9/27/11!!! You know something we don't?? For good measure!! Quote
theflyingmick Posted August 27, 2011 Report Posted August 27, 2011 The date format always get me. There not 27 months in the year. Quote
Jeepster Posted August 27, 2011 Report Posted August 27, 2011 Oh damn, you guys spoiled it ... with all the travel and different time zones John has been in recently, it might have worked with some help. Geez ... Grumble, Tom Quote
Hedgewarden Posted August 28, 2011 Report Posted August 28, 2011 TA-DA, Thank you, thank you, thank you. ------------------- Just trying a little psychology myself, as we await the drum roll finale. Quote
Steven Lim Posted August 31, 2011 Report Posted August 31, 2011 Time to have one won in Singapore... That must be me!! Quote
Wayne Dowler Posted September 1, 2011 Report Posted September 1, 2011 Don't hold your breath, now!!! There's a bunch of people that want this kite!! Please, please, please!!! Quote
Wayne Dowler Posted September 6, 2011 Report Posted September 6, 2011 Time for a bit of RNG influencing: That feels about right!!! Quote
RobB Posted September 7, 2011 Report Posted September 7, 2011 OK... that's a nice looking kite, could really round out my Rev bag. Vented & standard... that's all you need, right ? Maybe this one's coming to Exile Long Island ! ~Rob. Quote
Wayne Dowler Posted September 7, 2011 Report Posted September 7, 2011 Careful now, 2 might qualify you as a bonafide Revhead, and cost you some respect on the dualie end of things!!! Maybe you better just back off and let those of us that have already fallen, have this one!!! Just a suggestion!!!! Quote
