That suggests that they were just zips of the game files and not the entire hard drive image including the OS etc, which is what we need for preservation or to emulate it in MAME.
This topic is about preserving the games, running games by extracting files from the original hard drive is not preservation.
We need a BIOS dump as well so that we can emulate the correct chipset.
I understand your point, I just don't see how it's relevant to this topic.
