Fun fact: Simon (the dude in the lower left) lives all of a 10-minute drive from my place. As cool as all of the stuff in the background looks, his whole place is like seventeen thousand times even cooler in person.
I got the chance to hang out with him for a bit a couple weeks ago and take both of his actual Domesday systems for a spin. Dude is totally chill, an absolute genius when it comes to both software and hardware, and is passionate about preservation to rival even the most hardcore MAME dev.
In short, he's good people and I have zero doubt that between him, Warren, Matt, Chad, and everyone else, that this whole thing will be a resounding success.
