Thread: 2008 Monthly Chicago Meets

Hey all,

Sorry I have been a no-show this year. Got a new job that keep me traveling a lot from Spring through Fall on the weekends.

I no longer have the Avalon and have begun to move the CarPC to its 3rd vehicle - the F550. Here's a link to my progress.

Hope to see you guys at least once this summer - perhaps August.

forgot who exactly i was talking about this with, but someone had a 9 or 10" screen that they had problems with the higher resolutions and not working due to refresh/timing frequency, conversation went something like "i know of a program, cant think what the hell it is right now... too many drugs in the 60's blaghblaghblagh.... ill remember what it is in 2 weeks or something and then forget why the hell i remembered it in the first place"....

well... here i am, and yes i just remembered the name of the program to make custom resolutions/timings for just about any monitor....

POWERSTRIP!!!

so whoever i just killed off 30 braincells trying to remember what it was i was trying to remember that i was trying to remember something for someone... there it is^^^ get it and lemme know how it works

*(**edit**)*
ok so if that version of the 30day free trial gives you a craptacular time where certain applications arent to be found, i do beleive older versions had not such measures as to which there were reasons as to hunt for stuff to use other stuff....

yeah... whats the point of braincells if ya cant kill off a few here n there.. i mean we have BILLIONS of them right

lemme know how it works for ya... atleast that proggy might save ya some $$ instead of a new monitor

I hope to "see" you guys at the next meet Our Florida meet is on the same day, and BlueZX3 and I have been talking. (Uh Oh! I know )

We are going to be setting up a video conference between the 2 meets. Why? Just because we can! hahaah It will be kinda cool to see some of the different setups and such. He says a few people have 3G at the meets, and I am hoping someone at the meet this time will let us use the connection. John1701 here as a 3G air card we are gonna hook up to a laptop and use it as a wireless network hub.

I am trying to get a wireless camera set up so it can roam around the meet and such. I am bring an LCD monitor to the meet on this end, and I think Blue is doing the same.

If nothing else it should be interesting

Someone bring a Laptop I have no problem supplying the connection.

Oooooooh, sounds like the first step toward a virtual world-wide MP3Car Meet.

Just imagine every major meet scheduled on the same day and multiple feeds ala the US New Years Eve TV broadcasts where a different city(timezone) chimes in every hour and they're the primary video, but everyone can talk to everyone else. And we could make ours a 24-hour broadcast where anyone could watch with just a web browser. The whole thing could be archive in 1 hour increments for later viewing. And on and on and on.......

Just thinking about this kills so many braincells, my head hurts.
