[GreenKeys] Heavy Metal, Etc.

[Bill Buzbee]

Al,
  Sorry about the dead links.  The current version of HeavyMetal is 2.6 and
can be found at:

http://www.homebrewcpu.com/hm_2_6.zip

   There's a README in there with instructions on how to set things up.

   However, you should also be aware that a significant rewrite of
HeavyMetal has been undertaken by another list member - Javier Albinarrate.
 He's added some fantastic new features and pretty soon that version will be
the "official" one going forward.

    Let me know if you have any problems getting version 2.6 going, and
watch this list for info on the new v3 release of HeavyMetal.
