With a good macro assembler you can quite easily create your own higher level language. I've done that several times. Porting a game in the old 8/16 bit days from 6502/6809/z80/68000 was just a set of assembler macros for each low level operation of your game creation langauge. Only a few specific time critical bits of code ever ended up in true native, mainly the blit code. Porting games even in assembler was quite quick, you just had to start out with the correct technique. All thoses guys that wrote piles and piles of hand crafted native assembler without useing the macros we're just crazy.

Blurns-ball !!! Yeh. Multi-ball, multi-baaaaaaaaaaaaaaaalllllllllllll.

What would happen if you had 'real' child porn, but put it through a 'line drawing, edge detection and colour fill' shader on somthing like Photoshop or an auto Rotoscope'r video process. Would it still count ? Could you tell it was from an original ? Where is the line ? I can only see that actual acts against a real child can be sure to cross the line. ps. I'm not advocateing downloading CP, just don't know how the law makers can say where then line is if image possesion alone is a criminal offense.

What does Japan do about the Manga and Hentai stuff that rest of the world considers child porn but Japan considers 'just drawings', and dare I say part of Japanease culture ? I remember sitting on a train in Japan with the guy next to me reading 'Rape Man' and he was just your average dude going to work on the train. I'm not going to get drawn into a 'what is child porn' debate. But I do tend to think a drawing is a drawing, regardless of what's contained in the drawing.

Even Americans *you* hate have the right of free speech. Flying flags is protected speech. So is protesting the present Administration. Get used to it.

Words !!!

Yes, it is. I think you misunderstand what is at the driving end of the universe. !

No, because your behind the screen it would come out left/right flipped. So I doubt they would care if you put that on the net. :)

I'd be very interested in the rumored Apple tablet with iPhone OS running on one of these chips. That would be a great device to have on the coffe table. ! Chris

Wow, so your post was 'write only' !!!
