    • 2000, Ben Castricum, “Searching for a Swedish/Finnish C64 romset”, in comp.sys.cbm (Usenet):
      I am looking for a rom dump of a Swedish or Finnish C64. They seem to have an alternate romset than the ones used elsewhere (probably because of the characters used in those countries).
    • 2001, Paul Irvine, “NeoGeo”, in uk.games.video.misc (Usenet):
      You are right re the romsets, MAME uses different sets for a lot of games, you can't intermix Neorage and MAME sets.
