 . . . since the multi-asteroids hardware has been talked about for so long,

How about Star Castle on Tempest hardware ? Spinner for left/right, fire,
and SuperZap for thrust, and color to boot !

Clay already did the Multi-tempest, I even own one. If software hackers want
to write a game and the multi-asteroids doesn't materialize, perhaps someone
could try this ? Hmm -- hopefully that EPROM on the multi-tempest isn't
SMD, and is easy to swap ?

Not to discourage anything -- Hell, I'm dying to turn MY asteroids cocktail
into an A/AD/LL machine.
