- Level 7 : "Man, I still like MEKA !" - How to register
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------
-
- Thanks. In this case, if you want to help further development and support
- the author, you are welcome to register MEKA.
-
- To do so, you will simply have to help the SMS Power cause. This can be
- done by several ways. The first is to donate Sega 8-bit cartridges to us.
- We would love that. Donating hardware is even more welcome. If you plan
- to donate anything, be sure to e-mail me beforehand. And remember it is
- not because a game or a system is common that I have it. I am actually
- missing a billion of common game I would love to get.
-
- If you cannot find any cartridges then you can send money. Money helps
- SMS Power in buying cartridges to dump and/or for the museum, as well as
- getting weird pieces of related hardware. Due to me trusting the cool
- people who are happy to help a great cause, there is no more minimal
- amount to send to get registered. So basically even if you send $1 you
- will get registered. Of course the more the better. I honnestly tend to
- get depressed when someone send $1 for a four-years work.
-
- If you don't have an idea on how much you must send, then you are not on
- the right track. What matter is that you are helping a cause, and for that
- reason the more is always the better. Don't stop feeding your children or
- plan to sell your house to donate the money to our cause, though. Just
- think about how much *you* would pay for that software if it was commercial.
-
- I like to have fun writing documentations, so here is a formula to
- calculate a good price:
- P = (S / (k * 5)) + (M / k)
-
- Where:
- P is the price a nice guy would pay.
- S is the speed of your CPU.
- M is the amount of memory in your video card.
- k is defined as 3 * Pi for year 2002, and will increase with time.
- (approximately 9.4247)
-
- For my own computer:
- P = (350 / (3 * Pi * 5)) + (8 / (3 * Pi)) = 8.25$ (pretty cheap)
-
- A faster computer:
- P = (1600 / (3 * Pi * 5)) + (32 / (3 * Pi)) = 37.34$ (ouch)
-
- With in-between prices for average computers, obviously.
- Isn't that a great idea to accomodate programs prices to the speed of
- your computer ? The rich pay more than the poor. :)
-
- Of course if you end with something like 19.50 or 22.25 don't bother
- sending coins, you can round it up. And of course you can still round
- it up without any specific reason, it you feel it is too much or too
- low to pay. In fact, you are the one who decide.
-
- Please do not send checks, since they are expensive to cash (for me).
- Please do not send money orders, since they are expensive to send (for you).
- In both cases, it is not worth wasting a lot of money on a small donation.
- Cash in your country currency is usually a good thing.
- Please e-mail be beforehand if you are unsure about anything.
-
- My address is: Omar Cornut
- 45 rue Rebeval
- 75019 Paris
- France
-
- And I can also receive money with PayPal (very practical), under the
- following address: cornut @ noos.fr.
-
- Finally, if your main pretext for not registering is lazyness, then you
- know yourself it is not a valid pretext :)
-
- If you do not agree these terms, then you can delete this software now, as
- it will destroy your computer after a certain amount of time using a non
- registered version. Also, if you have dogs living in your house, MEKA will
- autodetect them and kill them by sending ultra sonic waves through the PC
- speakers. Just don't say I made it for the money, please.
-
- Registered users will receive information and new version before others.
- They will also get access to ROMs on SMS Power, other things I may
- show off, and more importantly: a clean conscience.
-
- Enjoy!
