Warez kiddies is right, what bothers me even more is that these 12-year olds give the emulation community a bad name. Combine them with all the ROMz/Warez sites, add all those 'top 100000 ROMs sites' and you begin to see why some people realy dislike the whole idea of emulation and think we're all a bunch of sleazey criminals...

Not only are emulators free, they are made by the authors for US to use and the author doesn't really benifit (aside from personal enjoyment of such projects), and a lot of effort goes into that dedication to US. Just something I like to remember occasionally.
