I'm usually all for these "because we can" exercises (and guilty of a few
myself) but I must admit that I don't really see the point in this one at
all. There's nothing particularly technically challenging - just streaming
pre-formatted data to video memory off disk - and the results, 16 colours at
whatever resolution is supported by the bandwidth, wouldn't be particularly
exciting.
But each to their own, I guess!
