Correct. They might stumble upon them though. ;-)
I have a few more boards to take and get them dumped including Digital Games Air Combat pcb.

Used to be a lot more older folks like myself around here that grew up playing many of the games during 1970s, but most have moved on to other interests. Understandable and that's the way it goes. I am glad there is a better chance now more than ever knowing the games are being preserved even if they don't impress younger generation.
If Clean Sweep and Atari Highway can be emulated this year, I will be a happy camper about that. I liked Atari Highway back in the days until many of the arcades in my area replaced Highway with Night Driver which really bummed me out because Highway became extinct by fall of 1976 at arcades I went to back then in mid 1970s.
