Quad Cortex Mini

What is "full TINA functionality", exactly?

Does that mean Data was really an expensive sex toy? Speaking of, why would you need that if you have a holodeck? Heck, if you have a holodeck, why would you bother traveling across the galaxy when you could enjoy 24/7 holoporn instead?
People have been saying that it feels off with safety protocols engaged but on the other hand holographic STDs are not to be trifled with.
 
The mini draws less than half the current as the full size? That seems odd if the processor board and screen are the same and the IO board and switches are what's updated. Hmmmm.

I only know very basic electronics lol - I have no idea why it draws that much less power and I agree with you it’s odd.
 
Lots of minor differences that could add up: LEDs, extra phantom power, etc. And then (speculating) whatever parts have been improved for efficiency under the hood in the past 5 years. I don’t think the original ever drew as much current as stated, anyway - that was like a max draw plus CYA fudge factor, and bundle the cheapest PSU that met or exceeded.

Is the QCM supply basically the same part with an improved connector? That wouldn’t surprise me, even though it can deliver more current than is needed.
