Would have been nice to know something was "coming soon" before I purchased the older version.

Ouch...

Doh- I'm in a similar boat.

Bought my ArcadeVGA about 4 months ago, which is still new in the box, while I have been amassing the parts for my project.  Bugger all!   :banghead:

That said, I am glad to see this new version come out- it's good for everyone in this hobby.
Havok:
Just do a tweaked Tiny7 install; that way you get the latest driver support and 64bit for maximum Mame performance...

It is a shame about XP64, but considering the lack of support, really the new windows is the way to go. We're talking about contemporary hardware, so the performance hit is negligible.

Wow. I'm in the exact same boat. I would have waited 2 weeks to have a new version, especially after waiting for it to be in stock so long.  :-\

Using a W-G D9800 at VGA-only resolutions is a huge waste because these monitors are designed (expensively) to be able to run at standard resolution (15Khz) and 25 and 31 Khz (VGA) as well. So you might as well buy a VGA monitor if you are not using the D9800 at anything other than VGA resolutions.

I do not understand your answer. When you say I might as well buy a vga monitor I get confused. The D9800 is a vga monitor. What 27" monitor do you suggest with your card?

I just got mine a week or two ago as well :(   Wish some warning would have been out of one coming out and to wait.
