Hope this helps, but from what I've read, the NOACs / guns are not an easy swap. Which NOAC are you using?

Cell Phones

When I started college, you'd sit through class, the bell would ring, you'd leave class, and you'd walk across campus having an actual physical conversation with people around you.

Intec 5.6 XBox Screen - your thoughts?

Hello and thanks.

I can get a new Intec Xbox 5.6" console-top-screen for less than $50.00, want to use it for a SuperJoy or Yobo portable. I know the PS screen is the popular one around here, but someone probably knows the Xbox screen pretty well.

What are your feelings or experiences?

Good ...

Re:

You've already removed the power-in board and the controller-port board and are just using the center board with cart connector, correct?

Coming out to where? The controller board? The output jacks?

Do you have any photos, and have you cut the wires already? You don't need any fancy equipment to test this stuff, once we figure out to which board the wires were going.

Along the same lines, if I'm using wire bigger than necessary, is it wasting more energy? Or does it take more energy to get the signal thru a bigger wire?

I am no electrical engineer....
