Steve-

Quarter Millions is a wide-area progressive game along the same lines as IGT's "Megabucks" games.  I don't know how easy it would be to set those up with stand-alone progressives.

Party Spin, on the other hand, would be a great game to get a hold of.  There have been some discussions here before about these type of games (they're similar to the Monte Carlo games), and I think might be something you'd be interested in, provided that you've worked on Bally 6000s before.

When you open up them puppies, brace yourself.
They're almost like T.V.'s with nothing more than a brick in them.

Wide Area Progressives (WAP) worked from a backroom server - sort of like
a Security Surveillance room with 800 cameras hooked up to a mainframe computer.
None of the videos would be possible to display anything on the LCD screens if they weren't connected to the computer.
They would not work by themselves.

I hope the ones you get have MPU's and motherboards in them and maybe you can get a
hold of some software somewhere to run them, otherwise they will just be big boat anchors.
