Oh my. That has got to be one of the top ten mispellings yet. Blows "consul" right out of the water! If I had any artistic skill I would attempt a picture to do that subject line justice.

Anyway. May I advise searching for a Donkey Kong cabernet ?

(I kid. You want a cabinet.)

If that is how you spell it, why do all the web sites i found that have the cabaret spell it cabaret.

Actually, jokerz here is correct if he is referring to one of the smaller videogame cabinets. Those "half-sized" arcade cabinets you'd see crammed at the end of a bar or in fast food restaurants were indeed referred to as "cabarets".

jokerz, your spelling is fine. Jorpho is just confused.

As far as the CPO, have you tried mamemarquees.com? I know they have cpos for many old games.

Wha? He wants a CPO (control panel overlay) for a Donkey Kong cabaret (mini cab).

Oh. Oh dear. :smash: :beaten: :monkey:

Apologies. I have learned something new today. I hereby resolve to steer clear of such attempts at levity in the future. What has happened to me, that I have become so derisive? In my defense, I found the mental image of a Donkey Kong cabaret (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cabaret) to be most amusing.

(I hope I don't find out about video game consuls next.)

Don't feel bad, I thought it was a bad French translation to English. I too have learned something as this is what the Internet is for (some of the time). :)

Shuffling over to the Arcade Alley, where you might get more help (and where we all know what cabaret cabs are. ;) )

If you can find the file online, I can print it for you. I also have instruction cards for sale if you need new ones of those.

Here is some other reproduction artwork I have for sale also.
