How many more gigs to go??

Archived from groups: alt.games.mame (More info?)

Hi all

With the latest update to MAME bringing in 8.8 gigs worth of new CHD's, how
many more CHD's are out there or potentially out there for download in the
future?
Also any idea of the size of the currently unemulated roms and CHD's?

Perhaps a better question would be how large
are the roms/chd's for
boards/hard drives that have been dumped and
are awaiting inclusion
in MAME.

alt.binaries.emulators.mame.chd

ng Has been around for awhile(21728 total posts on my Service), you
probably will have to ask your Service to add it.
-btw-
Agreed on the out of hand part.
