Re: Who Needs MAME? ... Introducing the Vintage Gaming System v1.0

["John Van Winkle" <appleiieman@charter.net>]

I think its cool.  I understand about the "one step ahead of the wife's
wrath".   I like the idea of all those systems in such a small area.  Great
way to demostrate to the kids/grandkids about the early systems and what
they could do before they get hooked on the latest and greatest.  Keep up
the ideas!
