Gleasonator was showing off his new CRA-Z gamecube and it wasnt all that impressive. But... I know nothing about the things he does and im a complete retard. But im excited because he flashed my DS! You seem to be posting in all the threads Gleasonator visits. Is it some sort of coincidence, hmm?

Wuold it do the same thing? Yeah. It'd play GC and Wii backups. There's already a few chips out but none worth getting yet.

Most of the guys who make them know exactly how to make the hardware. It's the coding that they really have to think about.

I can easily see now that you are t3h haxxorz. Right now, Wii-wise, we have three chips (and about eight clones... basically by that I mean people are taking the chips, scratching off the labels, and selling them under a different name). They are: 1. WiinjaThough most people don't consider this a "modchip", it is a mod, and it is a "chip", so there's really nothing they can say to convince me that it's not a modchip. This chip's primary function is Wii and GC backups. However, it is also it's ONLY function... (Note that this is the first Wii modchip, assuming you consider it a modchip. If not, it is the first Wii modification that allows you to play backups) 2. CycloWizDubbed the first "real" modchip (even though it's the second), the CycloWiz is a bit more functional than the Wiinja, and cheaper too. It also allows you to play Wii and GC backups, plus it apparently has homebrew support (meaning with this chip, you can play homemade Wii games). But most importantly it has an updater via DVD. Though it would be very hard, Nintendo COULD find a way around the chips through firmware updates. With the update function, you can update the chip after a firmware update to keep it working. The negative is that you have to make yourself a DVD for every new update. Oh well. It also has "quicksolder" points which are easy to to use for people who haven't soldered anything before. You jus put the chip down and put some solder in the hole. The thing with this is that if you screw it up or decide you want a new chip, it would be very hard to get off without damaging your Wii. Whereas you could simply snip the wires off, the get the CycloWiz off you have to unsolder the whole thing. 3. WiiKeyThough there are no current pictures of it, the WiiKey is by far the best modchip I've seen. It requires only four wires, but then it needs to be "quicksoldered" (which is the only downside from any of the other chips). It has all the features of the other chips but it also has better Wii compatability* and has some other cool features, such as putting multiple GameCube games or Wii games (assuming they're small enough... expect about three GC games or one Wii per disc) on the same disc. *Some Wiis have a chip in them that make the current chips incompatable. Currently, WiiKey is the only one that supports the new Wiis but CycloWiz promises to soon (estimated within the next batch or so). Right now I'm not buying any of them. I want Virtual Console support too, so I can play my pirated VC games. But I also want to be able to upgrade the chip via USB, because I don't see the point of upgrading considering thatthe firmware update will kill the chip enough to not be able to upgrade it and it'll be too late... Besides that the WiiKey looks pretty nice. I like the support it has for all the different kinds of DVDs.

I remember my old computer teacher pulling apart the computer tower, but I only remembered a few names. None of the parts.

I "lol"d at the thing about computer stuff. Sorry, I had just had a spazz. My spazzes are usually triggered by something small and pestering but I get into bigger stuff and I make baseless judgments from "anger". Computer teacher? The parts are easy. You have the motherboard, which is what everything basically clips on (it's what connects all the pieces). You have the CPU (central processing unit... or processor) which determines how fast your computer can run, the GPU (graphical processing unit... or just graphics card , which determines how detailed your computer will look... the sound card which determines the clarity (plus how loud it can get) of the sound. Then you have disc drives which store your information and RAM (random access memory. Thank SF for my remembering that ;D) which basically determines how much stuff can be going on before your computer crashes. That's why our older computers we all had as kids used to freeze. Because of lack of RAM. Now we have way more than we even need though so it doesn't happen very often. That's basic stuff though. The rest are embedded into the motherboard.

Isn't RAM temporary memory? It is. It's space used for stuff that's running, loading, whatever. I think of the computer as a bowl sometimes... yeah corny analogy but whatever it gets the point across. Your programs are basically the stuff that's put in the bowl. The RAM determines the size of the bowl, and assumming it's salad, the CPU determines how fast it spins.

Then of course there's virtual memory, which moves the unused/inactive processes back to the hard disk.
