You might end up with a much better monitor.

That might just further annoy Jacen's wife, though!

Hey, Mr. Jacen! I'm using a 10-year-old $6 monitor with slight discolored spots on the right side of the screen and a broken microphone, so keep me in mind if Adywan doesn't want it. Haha. ;)

He might end up with two monitors which could be very handy for editing.

Clearly the monitor should have lasted longer, Ady was sold a lemon and consumer law is on his side.

Oh my God, yes it is.  This semester was the first semester I was allowed to work on the two-monitor workstations at school (as an Edit II student; in Edit I we had to use single-monitor workstations), and it makes everything much more streamlined and quicker.  Plop your timeline and source/record monitors in the right monitor, and all your bins and, well, anything else in the left monitor, and you're good to go.

If you aren't already (and if at all possible), I'd highly recommend going for the two-monitor setup, Ady.

Does that mean 6 screens for Sith, or -3?

How would that be even possible???

Id love a 3 screen setup so i could do the wing mirror thing in driving games (ala Buggy Boy). I guess the technology would be wasted on me, as i wouldn't be remaking a mastrpiece of cinema history with it, and just lookin at pyorn three times as much as i do now. :-)

But 6 screens would start looking like spider vision too me.

And will you have three monitors when you get to Edit III, and so on up the line?  ;-)

Well, actually, we use three monitors in Edit II - two computer monitors, and one CRT (like these) that's tied to the timeline while you're editing or the input while you're capturing.  I only ever use it to preview a complete cut, though; it's much easier to look at the source/record monitors on the computer screen while editing.

This came up On the general Star Wars board thread about Vader deflection of Han's blaster bolts :

Look carefully, and you'll see there is a shower of sparks on the doorframe next to Han, suggesting the blaster shots were originally meant to be deflected. It's a quick cut though, so perhaps they decided against it in editing.

 It might be a cool addition to actual see that more clearly.

Well looking at the specs of the monitor its says...

 AC 120/230 V AC 100/240 V

does that mean it can take both power systems? I know my gateway monitor came with a US plug as well as the UK version. If it can use both voltage systems then this would be perfect. Does it say anything about the voltage on the monitor at all?

Also, on the back of the monitor does it say which revision number it is?

 Ady,

What I can tell you is this-- it came with the standard US power cord (three-prong male to plug into the wall, three-prong female to plug into the monitor).

Revision-- A04

Hope that helps!

Hey this is off topic but those looking for more of the CGI Yoda proof in EP1 look no further than here starting at 2:17 http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NF8yjbNzyi8&feature=related This is even more than the ROTS DVD showed on it's short documentary of the EP 1 CGI Yoda.

This is from STAR WARS IN CONCERT.

It is exciting to think we may get a CG Yoda in Ep1 blu-ray

Hey this is off topic

Yes, a whole 4 episodes off-topic!

The transfer looks better but they still haven't gotten rid of that godawful pink tint...

season three then right?

Happy Christmas and Holidays to you as well, Ady! Thanks for the present! The color correction is incredible!
