Hey David,

  Wow! I'm really surprised how fast this runs. I was worried that
python wouldn't be up to the challenge of an arcade style game, but
this puts my fears to rest.

  I'm actually working on a tetris rip-off at the moment, but I
haven't gotten past drawing a block on the screen, so I haven't really
had a chance to see pySDL show off until now..

BTW: your docs have been a great help... :)

Cheers,

- Michal
