With full appologies to Dave, Chris, Flash, et al, but that was one of my fave bits
of the DEC port :)

1942, 1943 and Black Tiger are the only reason to get MAME! Try Black Tiger on a
400Mhz Pentium box :) 1942/43 on a Shark do rock however. As do some of the other X
games (the one where you have to destroy the nodules on the space stations - cant
recall the name - is the best - I can get to level ~30 before I give up and restart).
