Laser blah - Binary + Source
----------
Last release had many problems. I just quickly went through the MAME source and added all the 8080 games in.
Some games might work that didn't, others are definately broken. I'll go through and test it later,
unless someone wants to correct the problems for me. We could always use more people working on the source. :)
