Just to let anyone interested in this know it's been updated. The 
APU (sound) is much improved as is the overall cycle accuracy. It 
now passes several hundred accuracy tests (about halfway there). 
Most of the work left to do involves
improving the PPU (video) which really hasn't been touched much 
since the original port.

If you want to see it in action the best thing to do is grab & 
build nes_test or if you're using Windows you can download
the newest binary release from 
https://github.com/blahness/nes_test/releases.

The first version was a straight port but it's diverged a good 
amount by this point.
