GG I would really like to hear about your experience using Joshua, I would love to dump M$ on the cab, especially if I could still transfer files over my wireless network.

Thanks

Suppose the following:

1) - Ultracade is actually based on M.A.M.E. and includes M.A.M.E. code
2) - In order to hide this fact, David R. Foley builds some serious copy protection into his systems and begins selling his arcade machines.
3) - Ultracade begins to grow and actually make a nice profit
4) - David R. Foley becomes even more concerned over the possibility of M.A.M.E. code being discovered in his arcade machines and the resulting possibility of his being sued by the original M.A.M.E. creators for his unauthorized use of M.A.M.E. code.
5) - David R. Foley sees an opportunity for leverage against the M.A.M.E. creators in that the M.A.M.E. name and logo have never been trademarked and quickly files for the M.A.M.E. trademark himself.
6) - David R. Foley agrees to return ownership of the M.A.M.E. name and logo to the original M.A.M.E. creators in exchange for the rights to use M.A.M.E. code in all of his arcade machines and thus avoids the possibility of ever being sued by the M.A.M.E. creators

Sounds plausible.

By the way, I like your whole board persona there. Name, avatar, motto..  ;D

Given the fact that the Capcom emulator that is included on their CD's is based on MAME.  And that fact that DF is connected with Capcom as his Ultracade emulates Capcom games.  It's highly possible that DF took the exisiting Capcom interface (MAME) and tweaked it to suite his needs.
