mame 0.36
mame 0.106

Both are MAME project important milestones, in terms of code change, there are a few threads in this forum regarding this major changes.
AdvanceMAME stopped in 0.106... one of the best mame binaries.

Oh man, both of those releases are absolutely terrible compared to the most recent release of MAME. Neo Geo emulation sucked back then. Neo Geo emulation basically stunk before 0.116u1. CPS3 wasn't even emulated back then. Are you joking? Running on a toaster doesn't make a MAME release good. MAME is better today than it's ever been in its history.
