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! |
