Hello LCD!

First of all, I took a closer look at Skeleton Dance — is it possible that the animation was taken from MONKEY ISLAND II?

Regarding the Pentagon: I'd be very interested in it, how much would it cost including postage? Will you also release SCENE+ on Beta Disc then? My Disciple won't last forever, and the heat buildup definitely shortens its lifespan.

While I am not a member of SPC or SUC and have no intention of joining in the future, I still think these disputes are totally shitty. When is the club meeting in Vienna scheduled?

Yes, the animation clearly comes from the mentioned game, but does that change anything? It is still a beautiful demo.

Once I receive the exact Pentagon price list, I will send you a copy as well. And yes, I will also be releasing SCENE+ on Beta Disc and MB02.

As for the Disciple: on my own unit, I relocated the 7805 voltage regulator to the outside and screwed it onto a piece of sheet metal — this reduces heat buildup and extends its lifespan.

I will be ordering the Pentagon soon and will write an extensive review with digital photos.

The club meeting in Vienna is firmly scheduled for spring (April or May); the details will be announced two months in advance.
