Guys, I have to have these! This is right inline with what Im doing on my web
site right now! Ill buy the whole thing if no one will risk it. I have TONS of
video editing equipment and a top of the line beta machine with all the
trimmings and low hours of use.

I have started collecting just this type of info for my web page. Right now its
mostly pinball movies by they can be viewed online of downloaded in Real format.

Promo vids of Atari stuff would round ot the lot!
