    "Also bear in mind your electric capacity with where you place it. In my experience you'll get around 6-8 systems for a LAN party on your standard 15 amp outlet before blowing the circuit. If you can put it on a circuit that is as isolated as you can make it."

    I have lan parties regular at a friends place and we get 18 people on the one 240v/10A circuit no problems with room to spare as well...

    If you shop around you will find what you need for a good price... it may just take a while to find

  9. Re:Some Photos on Junji Hirayama 's Home Flight Simulator · · Score: 1

    That doesn't really look like a 747-400... Yes I've seen the picture with the 747-400 freighter on it, but i didn't think the passanger and freight would vary so much. The upper deck is much smaller, closer to the size of an earlier versions of the 747 (the -100 or -200), but i can understand that as the larger upper deck isn't as useful in a freighter then in a passanger. You can see the larger upper deck in the -400 in some of the other photo's (the one with the qantas plane for example.)
