Guess the cat's out of the bag End of this year I hope.
Great. my mom just spent 50 bucks on the old one for my birthday 2 weeks ago... It wont render the first version completely obsolete will it? I would feel bad lol, my poor broke mom got it for me.
Ha, perhaps that is what the "hall of Fame worthy projects" thread was all about.
That is great. I'll be looking forward to the pre-order link.
'm just hoping there's details about using linear actuators in cabs in the new version
I ordered from Amazon.ca and it is not scheduled to arrive until Jan 19. That is with their free shipping option.
First off, Hoopz is right.
I'll buy it more to support Saint than anything else. It's a great reference but I found that I read more online during my first build than I did in referencing the book. I did read the book extensively though and you can see all of the saw dust in it from when it was in the garage with me.
I just found a copy of the 1st edition at a second hand bookstore for a few bucks complete with the cd : ) . I am just about to undergo the project of building a cabinet with my son.. How much information is updated in the book . Am i better off picking up the next version of the book or is the vendor lists and information here(online) more relevant with the old book ?Just curious

Glad I was routed to this forum - looking at building my first MAME and don't know where to start ...... pre-ordered the book off Amazon. So high hopes it will tell me how to build one...... I have a 25" Sony Trinitron Flat Screen CRT Color TV (KV-XA25M80) that hoping can use but fear too big.Fingers crossed!
I bet that TV will look very good! And I doubt it will be too big. Post if you have any questions or need help. And start thread in Project Announcements with lots of pics once you start your build.
Oh, and if you're married, don't ever tell her the real cost....
Just got an Email from Amazon saying that the book has shipped.
Got my notice. In transit from Amazon.ca
Amazon actually delivered when they said they would!
Mine says the 7th but hope its before that as it has shipped. Love the 2600 sticks in the background opt2not
Can't wait till my Asteroids Cocktail restore is done, then it'll be so on!
Yeah, I was disappointed they wouldn't do color photos in the book that's why I insisted on a companion CD with pictures and other stuff.
