Dave, that second article was a good read, thanks (I think the first link is broken).

Interesting stuff, thanks! Had never thought about this, but it is a crying shame that so many old films and TV shows were never properly archived. So while I don't know much about the technology of video games, this kind of emulation sounds like a really good idea.

(I've fixed that first link, btw.)
