Sounds like a good project. Would you like me to mail you my Grappler +
card, its still in the box with the instruction manual (which has
the memory address documentation for using the card). It says it
has the upgraded 1.1 roms.

Send me your US mailing address, and i'll drop it in the mail.

Unused, though I did open the package back when I bought it ;)
