  1. Just wait until Hawk and Dove become Monarch.....
  2. Only now, after 20 years do I discover that COLLECTING the Bandai Strike, Super Ostrich and Elintseeker was a waste of time. I guess I should sell mine for $1 a piece since they're not collectors grade merchandise. You got PM!!! J/K!
  3. Too late DA... you're part of the problem already. Crap. I guess that means:
  4. Funny thread. I just finished patching up a PC/Mac network(home office). A couple P4's, G3 iMac and G5. Service pack 2 (SP2) added alot of junk to my client's FTP program, doesn't like McAfee firewall (MS firewall: use me! McAfee firewall: use me! MS:Me! Mc:ME! ....ad nauseum). but overall it seems like a pretty good update and I do like the fact it seemed to have close alot of useless open ports. Too bad they missed a few when I pinged the P4's from the iMac. ...and before any ask the Macs(10.3.5) are running fine. Hurin: PC's are still quite a way aways from matching the Mac in the software video editing field. Adobe stopped their Mac version of Premiere when Final Cut Pro came out. Price and performace, they were getting trounced in both categories. Hardware video editing: Avid or Media100 systems...well I'll give the PC the edge there simply because they've built more hardware for the PC then the Mac. If we compare the hardware that were built for both then it's about an even draw. Mac ColorSync technology seems better to me though. Graphic design-wise, each of my department's g.d. have a p4 as well as a Dual G4(500mHz) machine loaded with the same software. PC's aren't used(except for email and webpage testing) because the final output, of basically the same file if we made it on a Mac, when we get our sample back from the Printers(outsourced)....usually does not match the proof we sent with the file. This could just be the Printers setup fault but since we change our Printers every few years (contract goes to lowest bidder) ....... As for this quote, it's a two way street. There's not much a Mac can't do just as well. Sounds like some really big dolts that don't know Macs running those places. Most reputable places who have Macs know they can read PC disks....unless they were Mac-elitist jerks. I'm betting more that it's a PC-user trying to answer a Mac question. Personal experience. Me, I'm not 'officially' an IT person but I think I know quite abit about the stuff since my department's IT usually grabs me first, for manpower, when they have to do rollouts(approx. 3000 public access terminals across my city). That and they have to get me back somehow for when I kick their ever-lovin ass in multi-player RTS or FPS games(of their choice). Gov. job, gotta love it. PC or Mac, I don't care. When a PC-centric person or Mac-centric person can't network a PC/Mac network, it just means more money for me. Lastly.....where does all this fit into "Other Anime or Sci-Fi"?
  5. Looks good. As for the hole in the batttoid mode, I prefer perfect plane mode anyways. Bring on the YF-19 toys!
  6. Preciousssss........
  7. Loved that game. Loved that old cheesy b&w graphics when you finally caught or lost Carmen. Hell, it's educational and fun! Still have that encyclopedia lying around too.
  8. Same old same old. I'm not going to wait for the M7 people to trash on M2. That would be akin to letting con-M7 people trash M7 and we hear enough bitching and moaning about that. Plus this is just a continuation of the locked M2 thread. That's a no-no. Consider yourselves slapped on the wrist. ....and yes, kill english-dubbed Hibiki. Japanese dubbed Hibiki was much more tolerable.
  9. It is terrible, this idea! Terrible! Yeah! I'd buy them just to see how terrible it was!!!
  10. Well, gotta say, he's got great big hairy brass ones after reading that interview.
  11. I liked it. Wasn't groundbreaking or such(plus I refused to pay for a PG-13 AvP) but it was entertaining. .....and Ivy (Bryce Dallas Howard) was cute.
  12. Gah!! What the hell are those monstrosities?! Give me a Shelby 67 or 68 KR over those things!
  13. Continue this in the above pinned MPC thread.
  14. damn, it's going to be beautiful (and cost a fortune.) http://halfeye.m78.com/himiken/h-ken/h-ken.html
  15. Mmmm.....I like that one. The only thing I can think of is to add the words Macross Plus to the spine. Like this. Oh and that reminds me, did you ever get around to scanning the mid-section of those cockpit images? I'd love to get my hands on some hi-res versions of those images.
  16. Cool news about Zeorymer. But if they make any other mecha they should make Lanster of the Wind.
  17. It's fine. Enjoy the discussion. DA
  18. Could be that they had weighed anchor and were sleeping at the time. The JFK rammed them when
  19. I don't think it re-defines anything but it is a kick-ass movie. In fact it takes the succesful parts of the first two alien movies and relocates it. location: Spaceship or desolate planet Alien(1979) - scary-ass space monster Aliens(1986) - (future/space/colonial) marines corp taking names whupping-ass and getting whupped location: some jungle in south america Predator(1987) - one scary-ass space monster facing off against an elite modern day whup-ass testosterone filled rescue team. Plus the music and ambiant sound effects in that movie rocked.

    Vf-17

    I believe that's Montarvillois's VF-17. He customized the knees a few months after he joined up here and re-painted it....last year? into that pic you've posted.
  21. Condolensces.
  22. Welcome to MacrossWorld AlindaSue. You'll find alot of M7 lovers and detractors around here. Hope you enjoy your stay. One last thing, no pics are allowed in sigs. It keeps the boards uncluttered. I'll wait awhile before I do any 'moderating'(yes, I'm feeling magnanimous today. ) DA
  23. Those cockpits images were by Hidetaka Tenjin, the guy that did all those CG valks and Hasegawa boxtops. Too bad I don't have any hi-res pics of those images but here's what the complete cockpit images look like(found these on the web).
  24. Hmmm.....I'm Canadian and it's customs that slows everything down. Customs sucks!! Rah rah!! Oh and if this thread becomes more political it's gonna get shut down. This isn't the "warzone".
  25. That was funnier then ******!!! ...but since we ALL know it's political.... Terminated.
