I just wanted to say thanks for your development work on Javatari, it's a great bit of software and I've been using it a lot recently, I love that I can get a page to open straight up into a running, configured 2600 program.
Personally I think you should be looking to the future rather than the past (and I know that's sometimes a bone of contention on here with ARM games etc). What I'd love to see are more novel ways of using the emulator on the web, while keeping it true to the capabilities and character of the default 2600. I've not used them yet, but the online multiplayer features sound great, I'd love to see more linking features like a ROM linked internet. Just use a virtual acoustic coupler modem and joystick outputs (who knew!?) to keep everyone happy
I do understand why some people are protective of the original hardware and constraints, and it's important, but I think expanding on what is possible is an equally valid course of conservation, please keep developing and updating Javatari!
