   Sorry, I don't have permanent snail-mail address yet.  I just moved
  to the Washington DC area.

   The TPU units can be used with in your commercial/non-commercial
  programs.  With out giving me credit.  When distributing the code,
  please include everything so other may enjoy. If you want the source code,
  more samples or swap-talk, just e-mail me.  I'll give sample use-code
  for free.  Actual TPU-source code prices can be discussed.

  Also,  I have completed the following programs.

     GEOMAKER        Makes tile-maps quickly.
     VSPMAKER        Makes the VSP files.
     BKMAKER         A drawing program that can read
                      VEW files (my own raw format)
                      PTR files (my own compressed format)
                      GIF files
                      PCX files

   The three above programs are specifically designed for the 320x200x256
  (game development).  I'll upload them when I think they are ready
  to go. (Bout a week)

   I want to see some great games.
