Thumbs up Apple Pro....It's Awesome!

Got my PS2 back today with my new baby, the Apple Pro. If you are in the market for a new mod, you gotta get one of these. It has fixed the few probs that the original apple had. No more greyscale PS2 screen and most importantly the Splinter Cell problem on v7 machines is no more. It also appears to boot games faster than the original apple. You now have no excuse to get a fliptop or no solder cause you are short on cash. At only $20 you can't pass this up.

Special thanks to precisionmods of ps2newz (www.precisionmods.com) for the chip and free install.

Just stick in the game and it loads. Tapping reset is no longer necessary.
Their normal install cost is $65. They might give you a little bit of a discount if you say I sent ya.

It has to be cheaper. Messiah 2 has too stong of a following. It must be cheap to compete.

I think he is basically saying it works very well for a $20 chip.

Basically the only difference is with booting Splinter Cell and other v7 protected games. You have to boot with eject rather than reset.

He just got them last week so he is a little behind updating his page. www.modchips.cc ships worldwide for free. Only $19.99 for the Apple Pro from them.
