Yes, that identified him pretty unambiguously as Mr. Rogers... I was trying to figure out the significance of the bloodstained sweater, if he was thus the "Ultimate Battle" version. :)
Oh, incidentally... It should actually be possible to set up the base level computer to run all the programs for equal amounts of time (at least at the base level. Taking into account programs containing other programs is a whole other issue):
Program 1: 1 step
Program 1: 1 step
Program 2: 2 steps
Program 1: 1 step
Program 2: 1 step
Program 3: 3 steps
Program 1: 1 step...
...
Program 4: 4 steps
... etc.

Thanks! :)
For my next trick: A scheduler that can look inside a program, take into account the fact that it's encoding another program, and schedule stuff so that the total number of ticks that each program gets, summed across all instances of the program, including those embedded in other programs, would be approximately the same for all.
Or I'll just leave this one as an exercise for the reader. :)
