    Well, I can respect that. I'm not trying to offend anyone here. I actually own several classic machines and pins myself (ms-pac man/galaga and Galaxian are a couple of my babies and would never do any harm to them). But as far as mame goes, I've always just played on my PC and always wanted a dedicated mame machine to add to my collection.

    I was going to build the cabinet from scratch, but since my wood working skills are lacking (to say the least) I looked around for an empty cabinet and was offered this one, and another one, for free ($50 for this one since it was already modified). I have no plans on altering anything else. The artwork and marquee are going to remain. the only thing that was replaced was the screen as the original was pretty scratched. I will just be adding a CRT and the PC. Again, sorry if I offended anyone. I've spent the last several hours here, reading and looking at everyone's game collections, and some are very impressive. this looks like a great community and I was hoping to stick around and didn't mean to burn any bridges already.

    Anyway, thanks anyway and thanks for the link.
