Thinking about doing a NEW MAME Cabinet
I'm SERIOUSLY thinking about selling my mame cabinet. I am sort of getting the urge to build another one. Don't know why, this one is great and works flawlessly, but I wouldn't mind trying to build a 32" HDTV unit..grin (too bad the cheapest display I can find is a 32" Princeton HDTV for $1400). Anyway, if you are interested, I'm asking $1500 (plus S&H) for everything except the PC. Basically, that includes the marquee, fourescent light, 27" RCA TV with S-Video inputs, power strip and switch, twin fans (too keep it all cool), KE-72 keyboard encoder (no ghosting), ME4 mouse/trackball encoder, control surface and keyboard drawer, two player 8-way joysticks with 8 buttons each (no ghosting), one 4-way joystick (wired in parallel with the player 1 joy for games like pacman and donkey kong) with 2 buttons, the 3" Happs trackball/mouse with 2 buttons, the two coin buttons, two player start buttons, and 5 control buttons (that is 29 buttons, 3 joysticks, and a trackball). All you would have to do is plug in a computer with S-Video out card and it would roll (provided you had ROMs and MAME...I can't sell that stuff). Email jmcclain@spro.net if you are interested...Not sure HOW you would ship something like that.
