Well, considering an SNES can be bought for practically a dime a dozen (not including broken units with working audio units), I'm sure this could be fun to mess around with, for a limited time of course.
1. Identifiable information of all fliers around the United States
2. Identifiable information of all college students
Chances are, they will eventually have personally identifiable information on every citizen in the United States.
Anyone else remember the promises that the SSN was NEVER to be used as a default National ID? Looks like the government's playing the shame game again, and someone needs to call bullshit before it gets even more out of hand.
More or less, I see this happening sooner rather than later. It's a tight piece of machinery -- I was lucky enough to find one unattended at a local Target to mess around with.
I'm betting someone at AtariAge.com is probably already working on it.;) Not that I personally know, but I know these guys love to hack [and hack, and hack] on things like this. A nice CF-capable interface would be great.
I'm assuming there's a ROM chip, similar to those found in the recent Genesis 20-in-1 joystick (same concept, plug and play). Lik-Sang seems to have figured out that it CAN be hacked, but how is a mystery as of yet. It involves circumventing the ROM chip in lieu of adding a cartridge port or something of the sort.
It's unfortunate that they went out of business shortly after Atari bought the rights to the Lynx from them. They were a great company back in the day, and still underrated today for their contributions in the past.
I'm assuming it's because for years, an update to the original has been in and out of the works. Mot of the games likely come from now-defunct authors, such as Epyx [i.e., Winter Games]. M.U.L.E. enjoys no such freedom at the time being.

I'm surprised the adult industry didn't come out with this first. Just imagine the possibilities!
Time to break out the zombie repellant.
I hope the IRS never finds out -- the Government might actually try and come after you! ;)
At least *something's* got a chance at becoming a standard in the world of web design, right?
Most. Underrated. Series. Ever.

What, no mention of attempting to host it on a C64? ;) Or even a Synchronet BBS?
The Ultima series definitely gives the FF series a run for its money in terms of the consoles/systems it's been released on.
Even the obscure Japanese FM Towns Marty got Ultima.
As a complement to your portable RPG gaming, I heartily recommend the Dragon Warrior series. Absolutely great.

...to discourage protesting at college campuses that I can possibly think of.
The blatant powergrab is sickening.
Haha, somehow I knew this was gonna become part of the lexicon in record time.
They've been reporting his progress before airtime for a while now... Oh well.
The College Jeopardy winner wagered $1,337 in Final Jeopardy... seems more like the geek hero to me :)

Try not to think about where your drinking water comes from, then. ;)
If it tastes good, hey, why not?

Not yet, but you can be certain someone in the classic gaming community will eventually.

This would be one step closer to the Star Trek universe, no?
"Someone set us up the bomb!" (...5 minutes later...) "You have no chance to survive! Make your time."
It's just the same on the other side of the pond, I assure you that.
