A few questions before buying a controller

[fencer]

1. Has anyone used the Apex controller with a Macbook? Any problems using a Mac to interface with the controller?

---web based interface connects to router not computer

2. I have read that if I buy a video game wireless connector

---No...buy a router it is cheaper

3. Where are people putting the hardware (display screen box and main controller box)
---controller itself generates little heat you can put it in a box
---keep all componets as dry as possible...includes setting up drip loops

4. From talking to a vendor it seems every time you want to add a function you need to buy extra stuff and the dollars add up fast

---not sure how to setup an ato for apex, but they do have 4+ digital ports in the package ..it is going to cost you 300+


5. Where are controllers on the technology cost curve? Eg. with LED

---price of controllers across the board are aboun the same. tech advances have not been major in these controllers. The Apex is pretty robust and offers a lot of features. The Profilux as well
