"The simulator has a few bugs and tends to start failing after a few minutes"

Salto is quite old at this point. A lot of bugs were squashed when the code was ported into MAME.

There is still a problem with the cursor, hopefully Josh can provide some pointers on how to fix that
based on the work that he did developing his own simulator.
