I felt bad not being able to send them any support money, so i hope this helps them in a way.... (i hope you recover soon gremlin if you see this!)
Don't feel bad, you gotta be able to take care of yourself before you can try to help others! That being said, thank you for caring so much.
It's funny to think that a screenshot of Super Mario Bros is bigger than the actual Super Mario Bros ROM (~8kb) :P
i remember reading something warren robinett (developer of "adventure") wrote about VCS game programming: atari let him have 2 KB but he only needed 1, and anything more than 2 was an extravagance. (ofc RAM cost a lot more back then...)
all the pears have been consumed :)
