Hi srean - thanks for that recap. I just did some more digging on this and tried to understand the assembly versions of coroutines. They were very spartan. It was just: POP the nex…

@srean - can you provide a link to the PDP support for coroutines? I would like to read more.

Thanks for sharing that link. I have seen James tutorial a while back, and I agree. He does a great job.

If anybody is doing this, let me share some words of advice based on experience. Please use a virtual machine instead of doing this on your primary machine. You eliminate the risk …

Thanks for sharing this. This is what Eugene Jarvis did to make Defender fast. It was a common tool in the toolbox for any clever game programmer for the 6809. I think it is awesom…

they are doing NAT traversal

so axod - which sites were you rocking since 99? :-)

It is not a large number, and they do have a lot of inventory. The ads are just not as effective. Also, 3rd parties (aka you and me) do not get these ads, nor would we get the grea…

Well, I don't have the exact numbers... but the main message was that the revenue in comparison to other ad channels was insignificant (!).
