+ 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!
