I wasn't real sure about this, but now I am. The only real problem that
I could see with the site was that most of the disks there were pirated
versions in the first place, no one has mentioned this. There is no
excuse for pirating software, maybe we could get permission to use some
of these. It would have never occured to me to put use these images
with anything other than the emulator, but I know that there are some
people out there that probably not only thought about it, but did put
them on disk to use on their machines. Point taken on the abiltiy to
put the images back on disk!
