MAME-Cabinet Tutorials Wanted
« on: November 06, 2011, 02:00:06 pm »
I want to make my own MAME cabinet. But here's the problem. Let's just say that I happen to be a n00b at a lot of things. Any n00b-friendly tutorials would be much appreciated.

You can check out the page dedicated to my cabinet in my signature.  Otherwise the BYOAC book is a good tool, or just do a lot of google searching.  Good luck and have fun.
