I know what you mean, I don't think it is worth the effort to try.  Heck,
the Hi-Tech compiler costs 5x the value of the hard disc reward.  Another
reward is a copy of Salvo.  Pardon my indifference, but: big deal.  For the
effort it takes, if I were to do this (not saying I can do it), I'd want a
more fair compensation for the time spent.  Those that can afford the HTCC
probably have better things to do with their time using it (i.e. more
assured paying work), those who can't afford it probably don't have the
software!
