Ok well after talking to a few people on here i think the route im gonna try and take is the simplest one there is. Im planning to buy a 4 player control panel someone built for MAME. then i plan to get a PC and upload MAME to it etc. Get a good frontend and do it like normal. Now instead of converting my whole dedicated x men, (which i came to find out was a bad idea) I might just build a custom arcade cabinet where i can just set a flat screen 25inch TV in it. and buy these cables>

Now i know this might not be the truest arcade expercience etc. but it looks easy and having a sweet control panel would give it the feel. And i was bascially wondering what the resolution, clarity, and picture would be to buy one of these pc to TV cables and do it this way? if all goes well ill buy some surround speakers etc, and kinda just make a place to rock old school arcade games with joysticks. Any ideas from anyone or has anyone done something like this and used these cables?
