Re: A86: Re: apology and asm question!
Heh... a computer is a wee bit different, in my opinion. And besides, my own
opinions of games aside, I don't think it's an insult to the purpose of the
calculator... games do not urinate on math. I mean, it's one thing to have
things that will distract kids from class, but it's another to have things
that will distract kids while they're actually trying to get their work
done...
If you're so set on making a nerdy pet, how about making a gigapet that will
run in the background while they're doing other things =P
