- Not such a silly idea (well still pretty silly), how about an expansion card [podule to those
- of us old enough to remember] that has slots for roms or even just a PLA or PAL that has the unique
- encodings??? Of course not so great for those with a3000's so it could come in a seperate box and be
- plugged into the econet socket. Hmm not so good for those with joysticks or econet, well you could
- plug it into the printer port. Probably the best idea really, ho hum.
