Re: Apple II ROMs???



Man, I really hate to jump in with this and sound presumptuous, but I
really hate how everything for an emulator is a 'ROM' nowadays. Is it that
hard to make a connection between 'disk' and 'disk image'? I could
understand if the Apple II had even one cartridge-based game for it, like,
say the C64, but still. People just throw the term 'ROMs' around way too
gratuitously and way too often when pertaining to an emulation or any kind
of cross-platform transfer (well, ok, really it's only for emulations).
And then, to top it off, you get sites going on and on, lumping these
'ROMs' into a piracy category...<sigh> I guess it's just a meaningless
rant of mine...
