Hi Sim,

I saw Kidace's reply. Looks hopeful.

Anyway - the Origachip (####://www.madeiragames.com with a link to the originators) appeals especially to Jap PS2 owners. But there's a PAL version. It's main feature (in addition to the NEO2.2 functionalities) is no swap booting of import originals. So its halfway between NEO4 and MESSIAH (which isn't released). I got Madeira Games to chip the machine while I waited (a couple of hours).

I just couldn't wait for MESSIAH and NEO4 (especially with its 33 wires) was not on - it doesn't boot import originals.
