Quoted from Fulltilt:

Just found this thread and so much to take in...
I've been a Color DMD fan since the beginning.. hard to consider something else at this point.
My ACDC Color DMD is shipped and on the way..
Tonight I upgraded my MM Color DMD to 3.0 and LOVE the choice of display options now. I put it on the HIRES and love it! If ACDC is looking this good, I'm gonna' be blown away.
My camera can't capture how it truly looks.

I have six videos posted on Youtube of my ColorDMD in the HighRes format if you want to take a look at those. I have them titled as Color DMD 3.0 HighRes . I really like the look of them. For me it took some time of getting used to.

Concrete, I had to get a key before doing the upgrade for my MM. I bought the DMD when it first came out so maybe you won't have to, but my DMD installed in the MM was one of the first versions that ColorDMD issued. The older DMDs needs a key to upgrade. I believe the other DMDs that needed a key in my collection was AFM and TAF. Good luck with the upgrade.

This was taken from the ColorDMD website about upgrading the older ColorDMD.

Displays purchased prior to May 2013 were locked using a game-specific unique 16-bit product key. This key has been replaced with a non game-specific unique 32-bit product key that allows customers to reconfigure displays using the supported library of SIGMA and multicolor ROM files. To use these files, you must first obtain a new 32-bit product key by sending an email with a photo of the display's COLORDMD INFO screen to

I just posted on my blog videos and gameplay of the new ColorDMD. I recorded the HIGHRES AND DOTXL gameplay. The colors look great.

Quoted from Aurich:

DotsXL is definitely my jam, love the look. Thanks for doing another video, it's great to see things that aren't from the companies, makes them more "authentic".

You are very welcome Aurich.
