    I've got access to an 8" drive as well as plenty of 5.25" drives, and the hardware to do flux images. There are others with access to similar hardware. As kjs3 suggested, contactin…

    Is the LGPL part of the license actually LGPL 2+, 2.1+ or 3.0+? At least some of the file headers say 2+, the readme says 3.0+, but this note was added after the fork, with commit …

    Sadly, the Bradley trainer doesn't actually work properly in MAME, because the mathbox (a math accelerator circuit) in the Bradley Trainer used custom PROMs which differ from the s…
