Future (how it will look)
(No shit, wired GPU might allow to do that level of graphics)

Alpha release delaying a bit again, due to that, I don’t know yet where it came from. SVN for wired super mario is available here: https://93.126.99.23:81/svn/wsm/ but I don’t think you will be able to access it right now.
On the ZX: got the new power supply, but to put it in entire computer has to be reassemblied.
So the power feed for 5 volts is missing, and source unknown. It’s too complex to take off the floppy drive (psu is under and near it), so the decision was to just connect it to a new power surge unit.
Motherboard taken off, sorry for horrible webcam, you can barely see the KR-something floppy drive controller. The 5-inch drive isn’t ibm compatible, but the power connector is compatible one, weird.
So I got my old fathers ZX Spectrum back from garage. But it’s no ordinary spectrum – it was built from scratch from parts, and technically it’s Pentagon modification with TR-DOS controller (yes, while rest of the world was using tapes, soviet people used diskettes).
Right now it doesn’t work yet, some problems in it’s PSU prevent voltage from getting to 5 volts (it outputs only 0.33 volts, which is just enough to slightly light up power led).
So I’ll be working on it, maybe I’ll get it to work soon.
Hi, I scanned you some internet chocolate
On a side note, Wire GPU is doing great:
I’m working on a complex aircraft HUD system, coming up: engine hud, gps hud, radio hud, maybe something else (thinking ILS/NAV system)
My UP key on keyboard fell out. I wonder if its connected with my attempt to clean keyboard few months ago (I sacrificed this key, but now I know how to properly take them off!)
I created this instead of listening the lesson about programming
Features: code scrolling (it DOES scroll!), and syntax highlight if you feed right code, and also unique feature not seen in any other visual studio – COLLAPSABLE REGIONS!!
Just watch the incredible footage of regions in action:
