I admit it; the cat isn't mine. I cribbed it from the Internet. So
full credit should go to the nameless artist who created that
masterpiece. I take full blame for the cheeseburger though.

I did have to combine the two into one portrait though. That was
probably the hardest bit ;-)

My thought on ascii art is, does it convey a message unassisted?

What do I see? It's obviously a cat. Mission accomplished. Could it be
improved? Sure, but... what will this incremental improvement achieve?

It should be left as is, in my opinion.

Another more recent example of this is that MicroActivBlizzSoft is
yanking "Warcraft II" from GOG because they are re-re-releasing a new
version of the game with even-more-enhanced graphics. Because god
forbid you let people play the old version of the game when they
should be playing the version that lets you harvest all their personal
info instead.

Well, it worked out well for GOG anyway. Not only did it let them
point out the importance of their "Game Preservation Efforts", but
apparently "Warcraft II" skyrocketed to becoming one of their
bestselling games as people rush out to get the classic version before
its gone. (it's being delisted on Dec 13 so there is still time to get
it if you're interested)
