about the protocol ?

Probably still RS232, just new fancy connector, ha ha.

[Sigmoid]

I always preferred this connector:



1 wire comms... Not sure how it's grounded exactly. Also handy for stabbing Clarence Bodicker.

It's probably RF referenced to Earth ground...

As good a thread as any!

Think I will revisit those schooldays, cheap pop, crisps, and...

If you're a keen fan of movie history and Star Wars I recommend Akira Kurosawa's - The Hidden Fortress. 
http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0051808/?ref_=fn_al_tt_1

Yet another fine Kurosawa film, amongst others, that inspired a Hollywood film or remake. Including Star Wars, The Last Man Standing, A Fistfull of Dollars and The Magnificent Seven.

What are you talking about?!?!?  I can't write a "computer virus" for a alien star ship on my 1990's (?) apple powerbook?  I'm sure it has a USB B connector!  Or maybe firewire!  Oh rats.

Apologies 3roomlab .

This is the way it really is George (incoming)


And when someone steps on Mars eventually (who will be Alien to Mars) , the irony is that's also incoming here too already imo ..


Both just short trailers , full movies available .
