Main > Project Arcade - the book!
New book coming?
britinva:
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.... ;)

I'll certinly start a thread once I understand a bit more what to do. My issue with TV is not so much screen size but the overall size of the TV cabinet because of side speakers . I think I'll need to remove tube etc but very nervous about doing so. Not expecting the Project Arcade book to cover that (might be pleasently surprised) so will lean heavily on forum or other MAME builders in the NoVA area (are there any?)

I emailed the UK publisher yesterday as I was frustrated that Amazon UK is still showing 14 January as the published date but listing it as a pre-order. I got a friendly response to say it's projected publishing date is 14 February 2011 (at least here in the UK) and is subject to change. So disappointed!! :cry:

Amazon.com says it's in stock, but I don't even have my author's copies yet. I have no doubts it will be shipping in February, but I don't know exactly when in February.
