this technically IS advertising your forum...and yes, it is a bit more organized, but all the info is already here...

if people knew how to search, there wouldn't be much of a problem with this forum not being as organized :roll:.

anyway, perhaps MM007 or I will do all the searching for everyone and add all (or more, actually) useful threads to the sticky.

and it's layman's terms, not lamen :P.
Without games my life would have no meaning.
Well, I guess it would, but it would be a lot less fun!!!!!!!

he changed it ;)...and yeah, max is around 1.5A, but I've only seen it goes as low as 1A or so....and I think the 7805 draws around 117mA....

And to clarify, the PSone screen can take up to 8.5 or so volts without flipping out, and it draws 350mA led modded, and 750 without modding.

Anyway, what do you think?

Two questions about controllers: what is the official name of the "boomerang", and where might I find one? After seeing the complexity of some controllers, I think I want to stick with the boomerang, since the boards can be separated with relative ease.
