ok, thanks. 

I found it can be nice as 'game terminal' (touch screen easier than mouse).
plan 9 nicely allows it to be just that: no updates needed on bitsy,
just cpu to the 'game-server'. maybe I'll be lazy and be happy as it is.
adding -t(iny) flags to the other games might be nice though.  we'll see...


w.r.t. leaving it idle for long time: switching it off really
(using slide switch under cover at bottom) seems really advisable.
