Which begs the question, why not make an emulator that emulates the entire machine, like Mame?
Okay I know that arcade machines are rarer and are dying out, but still, every few months an entire new complete machine is emulated perfectly on Mame.
There is MESS, www.mess.org, which is for computers mostly, and the new XE emulator inspired by Mame, linux-only. http://www.xe-emulator.com/
The Emulator created by an ex-nintendo employee while working at Nintendo for development on PPC is called Silhouette: http://www.google.com/search?num=20&h l=en&lr=&safe =off&client=firefox-a&rls=org.mozilla%3Aen-US%3Aof ficial&q=Silhouette+nintendo&btnG=Search

From their website:
Measuring just 170mm x 170mm, the VIA EPIA Mini-ITX mainboard is 30% smaller than the smallest Flex-ATX platforms, while maintaining Micro ATX chassis compliancy. It also provides the smallest and coolest processing environment available, including an optional fanless configuration. The VIA Apollo PLE133 North Bridge features integrated graphics with 2D/3D acceleration and DVD Motion Compensation, accompanied by onboard SoundBlaster(TM) and SoundBlaster(TM) Pro compatible audio, delivering key multimedia capabilities. Onboard 10/100 LAN, TV-Out, an additional PCI slot, and a full set of I/O features provide ample connectivity and expansion options.
The only thing I dont like is that strange processor - VIA Eden ESP 5000 Processor
no. I'm not a security geek. I remember using the waste p2p client and it generated my 1024-bit key by asking you to type. I now see how that could happen with ssh.
I'm not sure, but this may be why Google is so great, their culture is hacker-friendly, being formed by two graduate students.
Also I believe the original creator of AutoCAD, John Walker, wrote something about creating democratic companies where everyone is equal below the one visionary.

You need hundreds of thousands in sales to recoup your costs? Yes, under the dysfunctional business model that rules today. But if you develop games the right way, the fearless way, the independent way, your costs are drastically smaller. A few thousand unit sales will pay the bills.
Death to Software, Etc.! Almost every PC in America is connected to a pipe that can carry bits. Why are we copying bits to a plastic-and-metal platter, sticking it in box full of air, and shipping it cross-country, when it is far easier, cheaper, and environmentally sensible to ship those bits down that pipe?
Death to EA and Vivendi! Your groveling to the retailers, your lack of understanding of what constitutes a game, your complete failure of aesthetic sense, your timidity in funding, your attempts to grow by choking off competitors, your inability to make developers and marketers understand each other, has led us to this pass. You are dinosaurs, your brobdignabian sloth nothing but a drag on what ought to be a field of staggering originality.
Death to Sony, Sega, and Nintendo! Your insistence on controlling every step of development, of ensuring that no product strays too far from your own blinkered twitch-game aesthetic, your absurdly high platform royalties, your gouging prices for development stations and SDKs, your boxes with the controllers wholly unsuited to a game of any depth make you irrelevant to anyone who wants to develop games of enduring merit.
Death to the gaming industry! Long live games.
We find our heroes not among rock stars, or game developers whose real desire is to direct movies, or designers who bare their breasts in the pages of Playboy. We find them among the men and women who created this industry, whose imaginative vision once sparked its rise, who developed games the way we mean to:
Chris Crawford, once vaunted as the world's greatest game designer, nowcast aside by a marketing machine that can't figure out how to sell anything that doesn't fit into its tedious categories.
Dani Bunten, who understood the importance of socialization in gaming far better than the Verants and Origins of the world, with their customer-hostile policies, spurned by a bigoted industry because she was a transsexual.
Richard Garriott, the virtual inventor of the computer RPG, cast aside like a used condom by a machine that thinks it's sucked what useful value it can find in him.
Julian Gollop, languishing in obscurity, the fruits of his own labor denied him by an industry that values trademarks more highly than talent.
Will Wright, who somehow still manages to force his vision through despite all the obstacles the machine puts in his path.
As they did, so shall we do.
We will develop for open platforms, not proprietary consoles.

Funny thing, I was looking in google for a crack for Tie Fighter, a game I have on floppy
but never played, when I stumbled upon this:

It's more of an exchange killer now.
Does anyone remember what happened to the outlook killer being written by the guy that wrote the Uncensored BBS?
which they lost! What was that like 20 years ago?

I should of said decentralized. Democratic is a bad connotation nowadays.

Software you'll need
Funny, I thought milliseconds between keypresses is always the best, only true randomness.
And anyway, why pay 200$ for a freaking usb cd burner from Apple when most work on windows or mac?
But we know the important question is really, will it run Emacs?
How does a computer generate random numbers?
If only there was a way a program could specify to the system to never swap out X data.
