MAME 0.274

Man, this brings me back. I spent a lot of my childhood in front of the computer playing games on emulators. My father had this CD with written "MAME" in blue ink on it, it got a lot of use in the family's ancient PC (I think it ran Windows 95? I'm not sure, only thing I remember is the homogeneous turquoise background that I always greeted me on startup).

Many afternoons where spent playing Golden Axe, Streets of Rage, Final Fight and a bunch of others, too many to remember.

Glad to know development is still going strong.

I've read somewhere (maybe even here on HN?) about the supposed emulation improvements regarding later 68k and early powerpc macintoshes in the latest versions of MAME, which have been way overlooked in the past by the emu community - We're still stuck using basiliskII, sheepshaver (with very few improvements since 2008) or some (understandably so) cumbersome QEMU builds.

Hopefully we're getting a more accurate, multimedia-centric emulator for these platforms.
