As stated in other thread, thanks for being able to get the pcb. Good to know that the seller was willing to reduce asking price for the pcb.

He has helped out a few times in the past of documenting some roms on some pcbs.....probably 15 years earlier iirc. MAME didn't have useful documentation of roms such as specific rom locations on a pcb until starting around 2002 or 2003 iirc. Those early years were great for gamers, but not so much for pcb owners or repair techs that could use such information (now within source code)....especially in case some repair manuals were hard to find. Fortunately a lot has evolved over the past 15 years in which pcbs are better documented and more manuals and paperwork can be found online these days.
