2nd option. I liked what he has done so far and this is all I expected considering he is playing beside good offensive players.
Last name ever, first name greatest
Pretty much the same expectations as back in the summer.
He is roundabout where I thought he'd be during his rookie season. A little on the low end due to how poor his defense is + the lack of minutes he's received (20mpg versus say 28 minutes). I was hoping we'd see a little more defense plus more minutes but he's in the ball park, expectations wise.
In terms of long term expectations, nothing has changed yet. Those won't change until he shows more ability as a ball handler, as a passer, and more scoring versatility/efficiency. All areas which he hasn't shown so far. I doubt we'll see any major headway in those areas during the remainder of his rookie season. So that's pretty much on hold, so to speak, until his second year.
My expectations have been met.
I will expect more more next season.
To do that he will need to add some weight (muscle) if he wants to go strong to the rim with contact.
5 years from now, he will look back on games tapes of his first season and wonder: "Who is that skinny guy?!".
He will also need to improve his handle, going to his left and right.
The only thing I do not like is the nickname Devlin gave him.
Kid Dynamite???? Argh!!!!
My expectations have been somewhat met. I love that he's running on the break, playing hard on defence, giving some excitment during the game.
My absolute favourite thing about him is his free throw shooting. this guy was a horrible freethrow shooter at USC. He's working on his shot and i really like that it can be seen that he's dedicated and working hard.
I kind of wish he would crash the glass a bit more but since he's leaking out more i understand. eopfully moving forward he develops a better midrange, and consistant 3 ball, I hope he bulks up ( i was having a convo about what kind of bulid he has, i think its like Kobe, others have said Iggy)
I think moving forward he can be a star player if he works hard and develops that crucial jumpper.
Seeing as how (with Blake Griffin injured) only Evans with the KIngs who exceeded expectations and Flynn who is doing ok are the only picks before DD performing with a degree of consistency, I think Demar has shown flashes of his great potential to be optimistic. The other two I mentioned have the ball in their hands so it's a comparison with some distinction. It was also quite ballsy to have him start and get his minutes out of the way. I was not so sure that was the right way to go but it seems he and the team have weathered that descision so far and given him some on floor experience in meaningful minutes as compared to Bargs who got very little his first year or got yanked as soon as made mistakes. If he can work on his long range shooting and get beefed up some more it will be fun watching him next season.
I kind of consider this year to be another year in college for DD, where he gets to mature a bit and get his feet planted, with the added bonus of being paid and playing against NBA players.
Expectations for second year are high - I figured he would be the kind of player that takes time because his game is still very raw. DeRozan admitted himself that the only kind of offence they needed in the PAC-10 was transition offence, where he excelled. Half-court in the NBA is a different ballgame. So, I will wait until his 2nd year...so far, he has been about what I expected.
All I know is that I can see the type of potential he has and it's big!!
Demar did something I never saw him do before against Orlando.
He kept shooting jump shots and getting them in!!
I think he can become a pretty descent 13-14 points and 4-5 rebounds a game type of player someday.
There are way too many fans out there that have way more loafty expecations for Derozan but I just don't see it.
T-Mac had humble beginnings in Toronto and look what he ended up doing, statistically speaking. I'm not saying DeMar will be a scoring champ but I am saying that what you see this season may not be a great indicator of what's to come. He did only play one year of college ball. He meets what I expected out of him for this season but I feel he's the kind of guy you need to treat like an NFL WR; you need to give him three years to have a good feel about where he's headed.
His three-point shooting (33%) has been a bit of a disappointment but other than that, he's been what I expected. I also thought he would get more touches but I guess when you have so many offensive players, the ball's hard to come by unless they really have to pass it to you.
I didn't have too many expectations coming into this season for DeMar. I expected a little more from him defensively seeing how he talked so much about it leading up to the draft, but outside of that he's pretty much where I expected him to be. Average performance and getting minimal playing time. I would like to see Jay keep him in longer for certain situations more often instead of being so quick to pull him, but for the most part I really don't have any complaints.
From August 31, Toronto Raptors: Do Projected Stats = Future DynastyDemar DeRozan: 20 minutes; 7 ppg; 2.5 rpg; 1.5 apg; 0.5 stl; 0.5 blk; 1 to
NBA.com DeMar DeRozan09-10 TOR 36 games 20.0minutes, 2.8 rebounds, 0.7 assists, 0.6 steals, 0.4 blocks, 0.9 TO, 7.7 points
Actual stats are close enough to meet my expectations for the rookie.
The best Raptors discussion board is at Raptors Republic.
Stephen Brotherston, Pro Bball Report
in my opinion, college coaches don't do nearly as good a job teaching the game as they should and, in that regard, DeRozan has improved exponentially since October getting good instruction from good coaches.The Star, "Raptors pre-game chat" w/ Doug SmithDeMar cannot defend well enough to put on the court in late, close game situations; he doesn't chase people off screens well enough.
I also believe DeMar has improved a lot since October and its been in ways that don't always show up on the box score. If he develops this season like in his first year of college then his final 15 games or so leading into the playoffs is where you should see him take another step up. I have a funny feeling he may be a few years away from being a key factor.

Nicely done.
Doug's mighty peeved this morning. Thinks Antoine should be the starter over DeMar and Weems be the first wing off the bench. Wants to see how that would work for the last 13 games of the season.
Source - Click hereIs it time now to do Antoine Wright for DeMar DeRozan, make Sonny Weems the first wing off the bench and see how the last 13 games of the season unfold?
I think I'd do it.
It's not so much a knock against DeRozan, although the first six minutes last night were somewhat ghastly before he turned around, as it would be a move to shore up the rotation at the crucial time of the season.
Wright's been playing pretty well the last two games and he is the team's best perimeter defender and I think that's what you need on the court to set the tone at the start of games and third quarters.
The thing with DeRozan was always about his development, even if there was a cost involved. He got good minutes against good players, didn't really cost his team any games but now it's time for a guy who's been there to take over.
The next four games are pretty big and could very well define where they finish – especially the two roadies at Miami and Charlotte on the weekend.
It's time for the guys who have been there to do it; time for Wright.
I totally agree with that kind of thinking. I think It'll also give a spark to Antoine who seems to sometimes be the forgotten man on this team. I think if we can get him playing at a high level, for the rest of the season, it will rubb off on the rest of the team.
They showed a stat last night during the game somthing like when he scores more then 7 points a game that there was a direct correlation with that and the team winning more games.
Its a little late in the season but better late then never I say give Antoine a chance to shine!
Its not like its going to make a big difference.
The SG position has been a big hole this season regardless of who you put in.
I don't agree, I say we just shorten DeMar's minutes in the playoffs and bring in Weems/Wright earlier on in the game. Because the roles have been set, and DeMar doesn't have much experience coming off of the bench. It would be tough for him to figure it out this late in the season when he's been starting all year. I say we just shorten the minutes for him, and increase the minutes of Weems & Wright.
P.S. Does ANYONE out there wish we used Belinelli somewhat more? I kinda miss his exciting play-making skills. Maybe its just me.
Who would you rather have defending LBJ/Wade/Pierce/JJ/VC/etc in what should be playoff atmosphere games for the rest of the season: DD or Wright?

Using the Firmware Updater
It is aparent, like all of the Linkstations, that the firmware does not want to update the firmware if the LS-GL reports the same firmware version as the the one to be that's to be sent to the LS-GL (i.e. a modified firmware). The work around is to:
- Add to lsupdater.ini
[SpecialFlags] Debug = 1
- Change in lsupdater.ini
VersionCheck = 1
VersionCheck = 0
- Open linkstation_version.txt in any text editor (i.e. vi). Edit either the BOOT=, KERNEL=, INITRD=, or ROOTFS= (this is the main firmware and filesystem) to choose what to update by changing the version to a higher number.
- i.e. by setting rootfs to a higher number, the filesystem will get updated, but uboot, kernel, and initrd won't get updated.
- Steps originally drafted by Georg.
Note: We are not positive if only one segmet (i.e. rootfs) will get updated. This method must be fully tested to find this out.
jonli, should I move the following more technical part about Erics excellent work into a separate section? - Georg
Updater Specifications
- As EricC documented on the LS-GL side clientUtil_server handles the update process and replies to various "ACP"-Commands, which are similar for the LS-GL and the Kurobox:
- LSP Commands
- 8020 ACP_Discover
- 80A0 ACP_?? Possible Password?
- 8B10 ACP_?? Sent after 8080 and contains the filename. TCP File transfer starts after reply
- 8B20 ACP_?? Sent after TCP file transfer
- LSP Responses
- C020 ACP_Discover_Reply
- COAO Reply of 80A0
- CA10 ACP_CMD_Reply
- CB10 ACP_??_Reply 8B10
- CB20 ACP_??_Reply 8B20
- CB21 Sent after CB20. Same format with data changes Update complete?
- KuroBox Commands
- 8020 ACP_Discover
- 8090 ACP_Info_HDD
- KuroBox Responses
- C020 ACP_Discover_Reply
- Looking at the command word
- Bit 15 = 1
- Bit 14 is 0 for command and 1 for reply
- Bits 11 to 8 appear to be the command class
- Bits 7 to 4 appear to be the command in the class.
- Bits 3 to 0 appear to be a sequence number in the response.
- The updater on the LS-GL receives ziped images and tries to unzip them by testing for the following passwords

- YvSInIQopeipx66t_DCdfEvfP47qeVPhNhAuSYmA4
- IeY8omJwGlGkIbJm2FH_MV4fLsXE8ieu0gNYwE6Ty
Telnet Access
We have successfully managed to create a telnet-enabled firmware for the LS-GL. Fortunately for us, the LS-GL already came with a telnet binary in the stock firmware. Telnet can be enabled by uncommenting line 42 in /etc/init.d/rcS and repackaging hddrootfs.
There is a pre-made telnet enabled firmware available at here.
Note: The above firmware package does enable root access.
Removing Root Password
There are two known successful ways for removing the root password. You can euse the "manual method" or uses a special "clearroot" method (The telnet enabled firmware contains the "clearroot" method). Possibly a third method is to use the firmware updater's debug tags.
Manual Method
The general idea is to open connect the sata drive to a desktop running a linux distribution (i.e. Knoppix or Ubuntu). Then remove root password in /etc/shadow.
Detailed Steps
1) Connect the hard drive to a pc running Linux (i.e. Knoppix boots directly from cd/dvd)
2) Find out how it was recognized. (i.e. in Knoppix there are some shortcuts on the desktop).
3) Open a shell/commandline/terminal.
4) Mount the second partition of the sata hdd to somewhere.
5) Delete everything on the partition
6) Download the telnet enabled hddrootfs.img located in this zip
7) Unzip hddrootfs.img...you will be prompted for a password. it is:
8) Untar the resulting file to the second partition:
tar xzvf <file> <path_where_you_mounted_the_second_partition>
9*) mount /dev/sda1 (assuming the sata drive is the first special drive connected on the pc) somewhere
- extract conf_saved.tgz, remove password in etc/shadow to look like:
10*) re-tar the contents of conf_saved.tgz, replace conf_saved.tgz to /dev/sda1, umount
(*)These steps still need to be tested further!!!
- Steps originally drafted by mindbender.
Heinz' Method
Heinz made a script to automatically convert a downloaded stock firmware into a telnet enabled firmware with root access. The script is made for the German firmware. The script is available here. Heinz also made a pre-made firmware package with his script. It can be downloaded here.
- Testing Needed
The script mainly does the following things:
- retrieving the actual firmware update from the buffalo site.
- unzip the archive to a tmp directory
- modify linkstation_version, because the updater only updates "newer" firmwares. It seems this can be overwritten in the debug mode (see georg's changes)
- for modifing the installed image. it is unzipped (using the current password)
- then to start the (already installed) telnetd, some comments in the rcS script are removed.
- because the password of the root login is not known, it needs to be removed. Modifing /etc/shadow had not worked, so currently we change the web interface, which runs with root permissions, to do it for us.
- reverse the whole zip/tar process to create a useable firmware update again.
Georg's Method
Script method
Georg modified Heinz' automatic script. For those with access, the script it is available in LS_Pro Temporary Upload Folder for Telnet Enabled Firmwares The script untars the firmware, sets the current dates in linkstation_version.txt (allows exchange of kernel etc.) and adds the debug flag for LSUpdater.exe. Further telnetd is started during boot and the web interface scripts are altered in order to clear the root password when "creating" user 'clearroot'. Thanks to MartinP, the latest version uses the correct path to passwd (/usr/sbin). It also offers command line parameters to exchange kernel, uboot and untar an additional tar file into the root file system (see option -h).
- Testing Needed
Run the script as user root, if the zipped firmware file is not present, the script tries to get it from buffalos server. If you don't want the script to delete the temporary directory (e.g. to directly run LSUpdater.exe or for further modifications) add option -d.
Buffalos updater software LSUpdater.exe uses ACP commands to communicate with the box. Upon writing a java software (acp_commander) that uses this communication path Georg accidentally found a bug in the Linkstations software. Sending a mailformed ACP_CMD disables the whole authentication process buffalo implemented. After that it is possible to send ACP_CMD's starting telnetd and removing the root password.
- Testing Needed
This is not fully tested and might brick your linkstation!
Run the jar with the option -o for opening (telnet, clear root password) the target -t:
java -jar acp_commander.jar -t linkstation -o
Cross Toolchain
- Codesourcery for Arm version 2005q3-2 is suggested. Please look at Toolchain from codesourcery for more information.
Todo: Import information from forum.
Scratchbox is a cross-compilation toolkit designed to make embedded Linux application development easier. This sandboxed environment allows you to do a simple
./configure; ./make; ./make install without specifying any additional
--host or
--target parameters when starting configure.
Please consult the ScratchBox installation manual for more information. Scratchbox makes use of the cross compiler mentioned above to compile and link ARM binaries for the LS Pro. Make sure to download the so called "legacy" version.
Native Toolchain
- Yugi has managed to get a working native toolchain. It is available here
- An updated native toolchain containing gcc-4.1.1 is currently being developed.
Todo: Import information from forum here.
- Development for the LS-GL is too young. Official Openlink development has not started yet.

- chroot Arm Build Environment by armstation
Why: To not fill up LinkStation's system partition & To test toolchains and building programs without risk of breaking anything
1) Create a chroot somewhere outside of the LinkStation system partition.
mkdir /mnt/drive1/share/arm-tools
2) Transfer entire Linkstation system to build directory.
cd / for d in `ls |grep -v dev |grep -v proc|grep -v mnt` do tar -cvf /mnt/disk1/share/arm-tools/$d.tar $d done
3) Unpack the system directories.
cd /mnt/disk1/share/arm-tools for f in *.tar do tar -xvf $f done
4) Download jonli447's excellent arm-tools and copy them into /mnt/disk1/share/arm-tools/ then Gunzip & Untar the arm tools
tar -xvzf arm-tools-0_16-3.tgz
5) Mount special files in chroot environment (thanks Zoolook)
mount -t proc none /mnt/disk1/share/arm-tools/proc mount -o bind /dev /mnt/disk1/share/arm-tools/dev
6) Create /opt directory in chroot
mkdir /mnt/disk1/share/arm-tools/opt
7) Create symbolic link from chrooted /opt to system /opt
ln -s /mnt/disk1/share/arm-tools/opt /opt
8) chroot into development environment.
chroot /mnt/disk1/share/arm-tools /bin/sh
That's it, now everyting compiled and installed to /opt from chroot will be available from the main Linkstation system without adding any files to the system partition besides 1 symbolic link.

Cool Star White Iron 0r Sew on Embroidered Patch
- Size: 6cm
- A fine quality of Embroidered patch.
- Get great value for money with our brand new and high quality Patch.
- Its easy to apply method makes it perfect for stains, breakage and mending clothes.
- Can be used on jackets, t-shirts, coats, bags, Hats, wallets etc..
Ironing Patches:
- Lay your cloth on a flat, heat-resistant surface like an ironing board. To ensure the item will provide a good surface for the patch, iron it first. If it's a backpack or another item that's difficult to iron, do your best to arrange it so that the part of the fabric that will be receiving the patch is flat against a hard surface.
- Place the patch in the position you chose. The adhesive side should be flat against the base fabric. Make sure that the patch isn't crooked. On embroidered patches, the adhesive side is the underside.
- Heat up an iron. Turn it to the hottest setting your fabric can tolerate. Make sure the "steam" option is turned off.
- Place a thin towel over the patch and be careful not to move the position of the patch. The towel will protect the patch itself and the surrounding fabric.
- Position the heated iron over the patch and hold it there for about 10-15 seconds. Apply as much pressure as you can by pressing down firmly.
- You can also sew the patch if don't want to iron.

On the southern edge of Los Angeles, Disneyland presents a world of pure make-believe for children and families. At the other end of town, discerning travellers with more adult tastes might find the fantasy world of Beverly Hills more to their liking. The major difference is that one fantasy is real and the other isn't. A visit to Beverly Hills is like stepping into a dream; tourism of another kind altogether. What fun!
Movies aren't made on Hollywood movie lots any more but many Hollywood stars still live, shop, dine out and party in nearby Beverly Hills. They can be seen in high-end restaurants and boutiques around the "Golden Triangle" centred on Rodeo Drive. A quick stroll up and down the Drive will prove that the beautiful people of Beverly Hills (and not just the movie stars) are as gorgeous in real life as they appear to be on the screen.
Beverly Hills has been home to the stars and the ultrarich producers and promoters who can also afford to live there since the original Beverly Hills Hotel was built back in 1912 in the midst of an apple orchard. The hotel is still located on Sunset Strip with its 204 rooms and suites and 21 unique bungalows. These days the Sultan of Brunei owns the hotel and stars still party at the famed Polo Lounge, but if its fantasy you are after then its Rodeo Drive you really want to explore.
The Drive has evolved into the premiere shopping district for the entire world and every major brand from Fabergé to Versace operates a swank signature store here. However, just don't expect to waltz into every boutique unless you are properly attired or have made an appointment.
There are very large, well-dressed and handsome doormen standing in many doorways, and their job is to ascertain whether you look like a shopper or just a gawker. Leave the scruffy blue jeans at home, darling.
In Beverly Hills the experience of rubbing elbows with the gorgeous and fabulously wealthy is totally free but its best to be rather circumspect with your camera if you wish to maximize the enjoyment of your excursion.
It is indeed unnerving to person-ally witness just how good-looking, well dressed and suave the locals really are (and that's just the staff ). Yes, it's true, even the waiters and clerks look like movie stars. And, oh my dear, the jewelry!
One of the hottest (or is that coolest?) restaurants in Beverly Hills these days is Crustacean, a delicate fusion of French and colonial Vietnamese cuisine.
When our party was escorted to a private booth, we glanced over as David Caruso from the TV series CSI casually sat down at the table next to us. Standing at the bar were sever-al other familiar looking faces from TV and movies. Yes, the lobster, king crab and prawns served with garlic noodles were rather delicious, thank you.
The dress code at Crustacean is "relaxed," which means you don't need an evening gown or suit to get in, but it wouldn't hurt.
Best to make a reservation well in advance. Just give them the phone number for the Hilton and you'll be fine.
One must simply check out the Aquastar pool at the Beverly Hills Hilton (note: very reasonable room rates too) for hot young stars and starlets sunning themselves in deck chairs. The Hilton's spa treatments are also reputed to be the best in town, so make sure you misplace your chequebook before checking in. Actors such as Jack Nicholson are reputed to enjoy the occasional beverage at the Hilton's Trader Vic lounge.
A narrated tour of the stars homes in Beverly Hills via trolley is de rigueur, cherie, although likely all you will be able to see are very tall hedges and brick walls while your tour guide spins stories about past movie stars and their outrageous behaviour. However, you can make out Jackie Collins former modernistic mansion very well.
Simply strolling around the streets of Beverly Hills feels like being on a movie set. The downside is that you will feel like a B-movie extra in comparison to the gorgeous creatures that live and work here, but you can cheer yourself up by saying to yourself "it's not real." Only it is real, and that's what is truly amazing.
Where to stay: Splurge, and stay at the Beverly Hills Hilton (www.beverlyhilton.com).
Where to eat: Dress well and make a reservation at Crustacean (www.houseofan.com).
What to do: Walk around Rodeo Drive and try to see how many shops will let you in.
Ride the trolley tour, or check out other attractions on the city's website (www.beverlyhills.org).

Some people will put anything into a book.
No, I'm not referring to the proposed "Best of Blogsy" anthology, nor to the equally alarming invitation I have had to contribute a recipe to a literary cookbook. (Yes, I'm torn between revealing the recipe for tapioca meatloaf or my equally secret formula for turkey liver pizza. But that's another story for another day…and perhaps the Department of Health.)
My obsession of the moment is that perennial bugaboo: the bookmark. And some people will put anything into a book.
Just last week, we had a magnetic flap with a picture of the Eiffel Tower, a cardboard dagger, $500 in cash (Monopoly), and a long metal strip advertising a suburban library. There was a five of diamonds, a grade school class picture of, oh, about 1973, and a delivery menu of mixed drinks with names I would not discuss in mixed company.
I have no objection to any of those (especially the menu, which suggested a number of names I could give my recipe contributions.) They all had in common the one common denominator of the successful bookmark. They were flat.
See, we also got a strip of unused Velcro, an almost-empty peanut package, a matchbook, and a toothpick. (Do you have ANY idea how much I love to deal with second-hand toothpicks? At that, it's better than the books with secondhand Q-Tips.) There was a quarter (Canadian), two pencils (in the same book!), a moist towelette (unopened), and an old phone battery. (To think that I have lived to use the phrase "an old phone battery".)
I understand, poppyseed puree. You were simply putting something in to mark your place for a moment. But that knock on the door turned out to be a summons to South Sea adventure, and after you found the buried treasure and fought off the zombie pirates, other things came up and, life being what it was, you didn't get back to the book again for thirty years. You never meant to put that permanent bulge in the text block, or to tear the front hinge that way. I'm not blaming you.
But you might want to think that over the next time there is a late night phone call, or a damsel in distress knocks at your window. Surely there's an old lottery ticket or a takeout menu on your bedside table that you could put in that book. You don't have to think about your martial arts skills until the Ninja android steps through the door; in the meantime, think of future generations. Someday, some book fair is going to have to deal with that book. It's not that we will cry out, "Oh joy! Another wonderful person who used flat bookmarks!' It's what we will NOT be crying out when we find you put the pinking shears in at the chapter where the heroine finds her mother's purse in the abandoned mine shaft.
Alternately, you might want to consider taking the book with you when you answer the call of adventure. I may have to write that story myself, how the hero went out to battle evil, and instead of a utility belt had a book in which he could find, at crucial moments, matches, peanuts, a pencil, and a moist towelette. And that was BEFORE he set up the exploding trap using the old phone battery and forced the werewolf into it by waving a used Q-Tip at him.
Now, back to serious business. Would I have a better chance of getting into that cookbook with my poppyseed puree?

I love the way they presented cartoons in the 1960s. Cartoons would be bookended by rousing title songs and introduced by bumper animation between the story cartoons. This was a great way to present "old" cartoons but make them seem as if they were new and special.
The bumpers featured Bugs, Daffy and the gang talking directly to the audience. This made us feel like the characters were real and our close pals.
I don't know who came up with this format first but it's a brilliant concept. Was it Mighty Mouse Playhouse?
The other kind of classic cartoon format is the non-formatted "grab-bag" cartoon block. The syndication model. We used to watch "Cartoon Carnival and "Cartoon Party" and a million variations of these local TV packages. They would run classic cartoons, but mix together different studios and eras. The prints were usually pretty crummy too.
The effect of this sloppy packaging cued us in to the fact that these were "the old cartoons" and though many were entertaining, they didn't get the full impact of the packaged cartoon shows that seemed like they were specially-made . Syndicated cartoon shows seemed like they were bargain-basement leftovers. It didn't help that they would mix classic fully animated cartoons with super low-budget made-for-TV cartoons, like the Al Brodax Popeyes, Dodo, Hercules, Lippy The Lion and such.
When I was consulting for the early Cartoon Network, they had whole 3 hour blocks of "used-cartoons" like "Down Wit' Droopy D" and I explained my theory to them.
What I really wanted to do, was repackage the 40s Looney Tunes in a similar way that WB packaged the 50s Bugs and Daffy cartoons into the Bugs Bunny Show.
I wanted to make a new title sequence and bumpers, only in a style that would be a caricature of the Clampett-Avery 40s version of the characters.
The Bugs Bunny Show aired on Saturday afternoons at 5:00 when I grew up (sponsored by The Kraft Teddy Bears), and I always ate my TV Dinners and Salisbury Steaks on my Cartoon TV tray while laughing uproariously to Chuck, Friz and McKimson cartoons.
I wish they would go back and re-attach all the specially made bumpers and the original "This Is It" Theme song intro to the 50s Looney Tunes package and re-air them (and go back to the original un-remastered prints).
This kind of presentation does a lot to make kids think the cartoons are new and not recycled cartoons.
Hanna Barbera and many original TV cartoons also used this fun format.
They restored a few on this set and it's really fun way to watch cartoons.
