MAMEWorld Forums - EmuChat - Re: MESS Dumping project?

--
Lots of Apple (both II-series and mac, and possibly some Lisa 2 parts, I don't recall), Sun, NeXT, commodore/amiga, atari (both console and computer), and a ton of random oddball 70s-80s consoles and consoleputers that I'm probably forgetting to list. Ideally I'd like to get some of it into the hands of KNOWN messdev/dumpers (like Guru, LN, RB, ranger_lennier, etc) ...

Good list there. There might be needed bios/roms on some of those computer systems not yet supported in MESS. There is a want list page on Mess.org site of what computer systems (bios etc) are still needed. If any original diskettes are still on hand, those would definitely be wanted as well.

>Should I go mirror this post there, or let it run its course here for the moment?

Post there as well in case some forum posters there don't visit MW. There should be folks on that forum that can dump any of the roms from the pcbs or also make backup images of any of the diskettes.

Good luck in selling what items that might earn some money.

If there are still items that might not be needed, maybe try contacting, if possible, Al Kossow of Computer History Museum. Al has contributed in both areas of MAME and MESS.
