S-Video to RCA

This is my solution for a S-video cable to Rca video feed.
I found it quite hard to figure it out. Even coming to self testing to find that if you connect (upper left) pin 1 with (lower right) pin 3 you get a Monochromatic feed. I think it's a darn shame that the logic in the worlds Internet hasn't got these quick easy solves.. I know we have DIY, but it doesn't seem to conquer the task of removing mass industry when it comes to pathetic middle pieces. like a box that take one connector and connects it to another but the box it 6X size larger then the cable. or has some circuit board that does nothing.

Wish you luck with your future tasks, and wish me luck with the projects.

Project Hobo

Does anyone have a prefered linux or Ubuntu distro that'd work well with chaining processors over a network? Did I mention they're different G/MHZ, and ram + hardware.. any help would be more than manual reading..

The Specs listed below may change with parts burning out or even be removed completely due to non-function.
The Cluster will be an ever expanding server cluster that will be rented or process student
school tasks. The connection is limited, and as such data is best processed in saved packs. I can't foresee at this moment what it can be used to do, but know it's got a chance of processing CAD data, and other mediums. One I personally wish to try is to map the structure of the local intranet state or even just county wide.
System Specs

PC1-

PC2-

PC3-

PC4-

PC5-

OS- I've chosen with help to install FreeBSD on the systems.
I am told it'll manage the diversity.
Though now that I think about it there's a FreeBSD system I'd like to Install in place of the basic. I'll have to do research..(b_b)

I'm only planning to setup 5PC's at the moment. As more become stable I will Implement.

-Update.. Searching the net I found something called Haiku.. looking at it. Perhaps there might be a better idea.

Don't worry I'm testing on one machine before others. a 600mhz P3+256
