Mouse,

MAME is actually a very capable emulator of computers, not just arcade machines. This \
came from the unification of the MAME and MESS emulators into MAME. So, that's why \
the 3/60 ROMs are there.

Someone thinks a Sun-3/60 is an arcade game (based on seeing the ROM up<br />
alongside MAME stuff)? That's...odd. But, if the ROM is there....<br />
<br />
I'll have to dig up a work machine with a GUI (well, strictly,<br />
HTTPS-and-javascript-capable) browser. Lynx (on a work machine,<br />
because HTTPS) gets me to a page with a "Download rom" link; that link<br />
takes me to a page that says the download "will be start in 5<br />
second(s)", which doesn't happen; it does offer "If the download has<br />
not started Click here", which doesn't work because it links to<br />
javascript:void(0).<br />
<br />
On looking at the page source, the js appears to be doing something<br />
with ajax, which I don't know enough about to handle manually.<br />
<br />
Still, it's good to know it's there, even if it takes some hoop-jumping<br />
to extricate it.<br />
