This is a great resource, but be careful with it, because arcade systems are pretty loosely defined. Some come in multiple revisions or configurations, some have hardware split between shared boards and game-specific boards (e.g. games might share a graphics board but have different sound hardware), and occasionally a "system" is just people lumping vaguely similar boards together and ignoring the differences.
