Blooming America

Catherine has been lively in the villas purchased by Catherine.

In the door of the villa, the bodyguards are guarding here.

There are two batches of bodyguards.

A team is Catherine's umbrella staff, and another team is Jenny's bodyguard.

Jenny's grandfather is a director of UTC, US Joint Technologies, and a little shares of Raythene Company, and he is a veritable arms.

UTC is a strong company, the Apollo No. 11 is able to fly, inseparable from UTC support.

The bodyguards are strong. More importantly, they worked with my guns, but that gun was hidden in the clothes.

It is also because of the bodyguards of these guns. Catherine is often going to go out, and they are not afraid of trouble. After all, this is the United States in the 1960s.

At this moment, Catherine's partners are discussing. It is surprising that Elsa is also here.

However, all people are wearing strange clothes.

For example, Elsa, a pair of white cats, hands on the hand, wearing a cat's shape, and wearing a strange shoes on the feet, and a tail rose behind him, and the eyes look, it is very cute.

And Ada worn, it was hot - this is a set of rabbit girls.

"What equipment is Catherine?"

Lisa seems to be thinking.

"Cow? No, Kate's chest is not enough, play the cow is not like ..." Lisa looked at his chest, maybe it be?

"Kate's legs are very long, the horse may be good?" Aida laughed.

"But Catherine doesn't seem to like horses?"

Lily seems to think of the entanglement of Catherine during the first horse riding.

At this time, Lili, wearing a spotted dress, watching, just like a cute dog.

"Hey, because I don't like it, we must put it on it ~"

Lisa laughed.

"But is Kate like?"

Jenny is a little suspicious.

At this time, Jenny wears a ballet dress, there are two wings behind it, just like a peaceful swan.

"But I feel good ... right, how do I see Ersa?"

"Ah ... ... Hey?" Elsa did not know what it was.

In fact, she is totally dragged by them.

- Catherine's partners are preparing to give Catherine an alleged birthday.

However, because of the relationship between confidentiality, Catherine knows about it.

In fact, because of the emergence of Z80, Catherine is "slamming the square."

Because the appearance of Z80 means that Microsoft II computers, as well as Xbox's context, has entered the countdown stage!

Catherine first decided to release XBOX and let the technician fully develop.

Light has a CPU, it is still necessary to display processing devices in the game console.

An image controller (PPU) that displays 64 colors, a total of 4KB memory, the screen shows the 2-layer reel and 5 pages, where two background pages occupy 1KB memory. The display device can display 32 colors at the same time - this is not Catherine, do not want to show 64 kinds, it is because the cost is too high, the heart is weak.

In fact, Catherine did not consider using Xbox's host to make money, at least in the early days of the sale.

Of course, as the production technology is mature, the cost will be lower and lower in the future.

Now, Catherine is thinking, it is to make money using the game such as "Super Mario"!

You know, the FC game console in history, a total of 60 million units,

Although the FC also includes games such as the original small kings, "Super Mario" is also countless piracy.

Catherine thinks, but there is more than "Super Mario", as well as a game such as Tourasso, but "Super Mario" is the main thing of Catherine.

When FC, a lot of very classic games emerged. Because this time, the power of host performance is limited, so more game makers put their energy on the playability of the game.

The start of civil products should be cheap, and the less cheaper is better.

When the first Xbox host appears, the time has reached late May.

However, the cost of $ 250 will definitely lose people.

Even so, a game is welcomed, that is also unable to stop.

At that time, when FC was listed in Taiwan, Taiwanese could hardly couldn't afford the game, so they thought of a trick, a 1-hour rental of the game console 1 hour.

Catherine didn't know if this method can be used in the United States, but this also shows that when the game is welcoming, it is really stopping.

However, this is not the trouble, the most best of Catherine's headache is a game card.

Although Catherine has considered this problem, the program taken by Sanders has made Catherine headache.

Xbox games are stored in a game card that is inserted on the host slot in read-only ROM.

The capacity has a LA series 24K, LB series 40K, LC series 48K, LD series 64K, and other media with higher storage capacity, but is still developing temporarily. There are also some game cards with batteries to save game progress. This word is less realistic.

The simplest LA series of tries requires more than 100 US dollars, which is still lowered to the cost of the limit.

The ROM form is vetoed by Catherine.

An unexpected, one gave birth.

Catherine suddenly thought of a cheap to unable to be cheap - tape!

Why can't you achieve your own purpose by magnetism? !

You know, this history is completely played with a tape as a media tape!

Now tape, almost about 100 bpi. BPI is also how many bytes are stored on a tape per inch. In this way, the capacity of a box can be almost 48KB, and the tape is increased, not appropriate.

More importantly, such as "Super Mario" games, happens to be so much (original files without analog information 32KB, now Mario contains simulator code.)

In this way, your own storage cost is at least 90% compared to the cassette!

Although the tape is used, it is probably adding 2 kB memory for reading, and when switching the level, the speed will slow down, but this is not a problem. To know, the read time required for the CD game is called the tragedy!

Moreover, tape technology is now more mature, you can use it yourself!

However, in this case, in invisible, the cost of the host is added, as Catherine is expected, the start of civil products should be cheap.

If the application of the pipeline is completely achieved, the initial cost is about $ 320, and after the process is skilled, it may continue to drop to $ 300 or less.

If the factory price, Catherine is still 320 US dollars, and it is not taken by a penny, and the tax is noted. It is actually a loss.

The retail price, Catherine decided to be $ 349.

It is only postponed by this to Xbox's launch time.

So, in May 1965, Apple's decisive jumped ticket ...
