Hoblow Posted January 10, 2004 Share Posted January 10, 2004 Did you ever see that movie with that Jim Henson type shit going on (Might've been the never ending story 2) where they had those big gollywog type robots that looked like cockroaches and the kid with the crazy wolf? (i think i'm getting my movies mixed up now) Anyway, the crazy killer witch bitch in that had this mad tower with a big hand holding a cystal ball on top that shot killer death rays. You should try getting one of those. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
caL Posted January 10, 2004 Share Posted January 10, 2004 through usb it would be so slow. i dunno about that firewire shit, never had it on anything Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GnomeToys Posted January 10, 2004 Share Posted January 10, 2004 It would be easier just to use ethernet, since that's what it was designed for. I'd explain more but I'm building a rocketship out of my hopes and dreams to fly to the moon soon. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
