I got some really neat presents this year for Christmas, but the coolest gift by far would have to be the sweet five-string banjo that Tammy got me. It’s a cheap one, perfect for learning without making too much of a financial commitment, just like I wanted. Finding someone who teaches banjo locally is pretty…
It’s been a long time coming, but after nearly two and a half years ZSNES has been updated to 1.40. ZSNES is the best Super Nintendo emulator in the world, and one of the most impressive emulators ever written!
