I too derived much joy from playing space invaders for free + galaxian and all those others I spent all my pocket money on. I have 176 ROMS archived including the ones of which you write plus all the space invaders ones and practically everything that ever came out in an arcade console. I don't really know what the legal scenario is with distribution of these but I'm happy to make them available on a CD. Perhaps they could go on the WAMUG CD or is this too illegal? Happy to give you a copy privately otherwise. Rob
