   Actually, I recall something that struck me as a bit funny at the time...   
      
   I converted two games, Jungle Raiders and Star Cresta to use the PCG-80   
   "hires" board on the Model I. It was a programmable character generator,   
   and as such was only suited to games that moved graphics objects with a   
   per-character granularity rather than per-pixel granularity.   
      
   These two guys had asked if I could convert any of the remaining games   
   to hires - most (if not all) of which used per-pixel granularity (which   
   is why I hadn't converted them). I explained the limitations to them,   
   thinking it odd that the authors didn't quite understand the problem!?!   
      
   Anyway, I was only about 14/15 at the time I think?!?   
      
   Hmmm..

   Yeah, and now I'm sorry I did! ;) What a mess! Unfortunately these   
   things almost always end up costing innocent parties $$$ - regardless of   
   the outcome. :( Good luck - I hope justice prevails!
