I'd be looking to put this into the Mameroom Ultimate Arcade II cabinet, which per the rep has interior room of 27" wide, just under 25" high, and almost 21" deep. Aside from dimensions, what features do I NEED and WANT for the set to be adequate? Manual looks to be included which is a nice bonus.

Okie,
Picked up my FREE 25" RCA set today. Does it work? No clue. Did it come with a power cord? Of course not. Manual? Yes! Will it connect to my PC? Once I get a modulator to help me connect to the coaxial cable input, I hope so!
Now to get the PC up and running, then cleaned, then setup for this purpose. TV looks big though, need to measure and see if I need to take out of case. Oog.
But progress!! :D

Even composite video would be better than that. I hope that's not the option you're actually considering.

OUch! only a coax input? AND no power cord? I would ditch it, it was free anyway. You can get a good CRT of CL for under 50 bucks.

I agree - there's always something better on the horizon. A buddy I work with just upgraded to LCD, and I'm picking up a nice 27" Sony Trinitron tomorrow! (Check Craigslist - it's a good source, and you can pick and choose.)

Why do that when he could embark on the exciting adventure of universal chassis!
