   You're better off writing a MESS driver for it - a lot of the hard work has   
   already been done for you. Plus it'll more likely have wider exposure to the   
   emulation community than if you roll your own...   
      
   I can lend a hand if you'd like, I've had experience with MAME/MESS drivers...
