First mobile post

Just installed blogger onto my iPhone, how have I not been introduced to the world of blogging before. I love to tell the world what I am doing and I never have enough characters to do it with, well now I do.

University Project start point

I have been given an assignment at university that asks that we interact with the open source community, our tutor suggested picking something we are interested in. I could pick something we could use at work, I considered GIMP the opensource image processing software but its just not as good as Photo shop and I don't think I would use it in the future.
Recently we have introduced a Retro Games section on my T-shirt printing website so I figured I could do something with retro gaming to give me some inspiration with my designs. I am familiar with MAME as I had it on a modified  Xbox I had when I was younger (I did not modify it!) and I love Neo Geo games.
Progress so far: I have downloaded the program from the main website http://mamedev.org/ It appears I will have to read the documentation to get it working. I am determined not to use the version with the added GUI, and use command prompt.
