How new is Hyperbowl? I can't find it on klov.com

I don't know how new hyperbowl is, but you can find all the details at www.hyperbowl.com
Its run on a Pentium 2/windows based platform. You can download (read: buy) the exact same game from their website.
I got the winning bid on on of those big balls, so when I get it interfaced to an optic board, I'll try hyperbowl out.
I just wish I would have known about the glo balls listed above before I bid in the auction, I probably would have gotten one of those instead.
Special thanks to MinerAl, this is what I was looking for in this thread http://www.arcadecontrols.org/yabbse/index.php?board=1;action=display;threadid=6183;start=0

Some people come here to sit and think,
Some come here to ---steaming pile of meadow muffin--- and stink,
but I come here to scratch my balls, and read ---That which is odiferous and causeth plants to grow--- on this walls. :)

How hard was it to hack the original Atari Football trackballs?
I almost got one AGES ago (when I was looking) but I was afraid the balls where too old and I couldn't get replacements.
If I had known, I would have bought one in a SEC!
SWEET! (and pictures... please!)

Not hard at all once Oscar helped me with the optic boards that were on it.
Here's the thread where I got schooled on interfacing giant balls with my Opti-pac.
Once again Oscar rocks.

The balls you won are paramounts by EPCO just like on the above link. They seem really proud of brand new 4.5" balls there too ($35+ each), so you probably got a good deal!
P.S. I got distracted yesterday, I'll (try to) post pictures tonight.
