Hi Folks,

I've been mulling over an idea for playing Sam games over a network. 
Imagine if you will, a version of the very excellent SimCoupe that acted 
as a server which would send the current screen to clients (with VNC 
like encoding), and also act on key presses sent by the clients. The end 
result would be like multiple people each with a virtual hand on the Sam 
keyboard playing a single game. It should be quite feasible over a LAN, 
or just a fast net connection.

Anyone considered something like this? Alas, I dont know if I could 
devote enough time to work on it. Why must good ideas always require 
lots of hard work?! ;)

Regarding SimCoupe, who is currently maintaining it? The only version I 
can find on simcoupe.org is 0.81a, but I have version 0.90 beta 10 
installed - and I cant remember where I got it from..

BTW. Happy New Year all! :)

Regards,

Will McGugan
