Some of my favorite plugins are made by SoundToys

First, can I ask, did you possibly tighten the screws in the front PCB a little too tightly?  I've had that happen and I actually fixed it by loosening the screws and exercising the contrast pot a bit. 
Vertical lines can actually be fixed, so you're in luck.  If you take off the rubber protector from the bottom of the screen where the ribbon cable is soldered and hold a soldering iron below the area where the dead lines are for a couple seconds it should fix the dead lines.  It can make other lines flicker, but put some pressure as it cools and it should fix them.  It's always worked for me.

What method did you use for syncing with your NES?  I remember a project being proposed for that a while ago, but I don't think it was ever completed.
Btw, awesome program, awesome avatar.

As expected, a little-scale appears and settles all of this back and forth talk.  We love you little-scale!  It's good to hear from you smile  I'm glad to know where you're at and am happy to wait.

Do I have to have Photoshop for this?

Biversion is really your best bet.  Green is pretty clear naturally.  White too.  If you are using LSDJ, you can turn on the invert option after installing inverted polarizing film, and it will have basically the same effect as biversion.

This reminds me of an episode of Andy Richter Controls the Universe.
All of that stuff has to be fake due to their screens appearing to be still on despite having been fried.

What version of Mac OS do you have to emulate to run this?  It says that Classic mode is no longer supported when I try to open it.

I understand both sides here.  I totally think littlescale deserves the benefit of the doubt.  Everybody's heard of him.  He has some major respect among members of this community (myself included).  The work he does is innovative and directly influences the chip music scene to become something new. He is a person that deserves to be trusted.  Yet, at the same time, it doesn't seem too hard to hop on here and type "Hey guys, I've got a lot of work I'm doing and haven't had time to build additional units.  I will resume when time allows."  That'd be enough for me.  I am assuming he has a really good reason.  I'd just like to hear it from him and have him silence all this speculation.

That said, take it easy on him.  Don't spam him with a bunch of emails and things.  He's only one guy.  I can tell you I wouldn't want to come home from working my regular job and start working again on a project about which I was getting nagged.

That's an amazing looking gradient paint job.  Would you ever do a tutorial?

Neat!  I can't wait to listen to them and try out my drag n' derp I've waited so long for.  BTW, I wasn't confused by EST,though I live in the United States. I never knew there was a "daylight time" equivalent to every time zone that observes daylight savings. How confusing for those that don't, though. :-/

My package I ordered this weekend didn't ship until today.  Could I have gotten some?

Most of those transitions are actually tape splices, so just make awkward ones until you learn which ones work best.

Hah! I suppose you're right about that.  I just want to be able to write good, musical transitions.

My only problem with waiting is that I've forgotten I bought this a few times.  I keep checking back to make sure I haven't been forgotten or anything.  As long as there are others in my position, I feel safe.  I would kind of like an update so I know what's going on.  I'm not complaining about the wait, I don't really mind.  I just want to know where we're at with these or what's causing the delay.  I'm an understanding guy, I totally get life getting in the way of plans.

I really want to do prog rock/funk type stuff with lots of interesting chord and time signature changes, but I can't quite seem to make the transitions smooth enough.
