It's not a joke. It's a known problem...



the problem was huge at the beginning of 27" production, in late 2009.
Now it's less important, but it's still exist !
for exemple, the one in demonstration at my local reseller has the yellowness desease.

This could be seamless but if you're ino photographic works, this could be a real weakness.
there is a sample pictures to check the degree of illness your screen has :

top and bottom grey squares should look the same colour

And as the machine is quite expensive, it should be perfect outta the box.


PS : I hop your imac isn't infected...

Thanks, it looks perfect to me. Although I only do "home" photographic work I am pretty critical when it comes to displays/colors etc.
I can say this is the most freaking beautiful computer screen I've ever worked with, it's simply amazing.

Colin, sorry for de-raling this thread ! Back on topic now ! :D

I really hope you can add the Arcade flyer option ! ;)

no problem.

I've added the flyers to it, but the automatic update doesn't seem to be picking it up at the moment.

You can just re-download it manually and install. You'll also have extra preferences to enable/disable sites.

Hey Colin,

Maybe stupid or straightforward but I found another GREAT application of your tool.

I'm still not very experienced in pinballs and when reading forums like www.gameroom.be the flipper experts use a lot of abbreviations (like STTNG) for pinballs that I don't (always) know what they mean.
Now, ipdb.org is pretty smart and recognizes these abbreviations so what I do now is select it, right click Search in IPDB and presto, I know what they actually mean ! :D


By the way, thanks again for this brilliant little tool, I use it SO much !  ;D ;D ;D

PC users in the arcade hobby: it's worth switching to Safari just for this "little" tool IMHO !

Thanks.

Never thought of using it for that, I still get caught by the odd pinball abbreviation too.

I looked at making a Google Chrome version of the plugin so any platform could use it but chrome doesn't let you access the contextual menu.
