[elektron] Re: OS

"I vote for a pong game to be added. When you hit
the ball and it hits the wall it makes a random sound with some machine."

LOL! I sent the exact same idea to Elektron 3 years ago :)
They said that they thought it was a cool idea, but that the music/bug fix areas were their 
highest priorities. Either Daniel or Henrik (I can't remember which one), from Elektron 
offered to send me an API for developing a game myself, but at the time, I didn't know any 
assembler and was just starting to learn C++. I could probably do it now if I had enough 
time (I'm quite busy with school). It would be such a 1337 feature!
