Re: 68k/OS additional ROMs

My main area of interest was original boxed games MDV's (I love using MD carts) But with so called bidders getting "already in progress" auctions taken down (with less than 24 hours to go) to "do a bulk deal" (not fair on the general QL enthusiast BTW, they should take their cha...
