Description
Control firmware for a pinball machine, read from the machine’s chips before it was scrapped.
Provenance
Brought to a Lazarus rescue day by a former owner. The window labels had peeled and the EPROMs had been exposed to light, so each was read many times. The image matches a checksum published by the original distributor.
