| The iTea Guy:
I have been thinking the same thing for about a month now, and have measured the insides of an old Asus EEE 1000H and started designing on in Google sketch up. its still very early but i would love to here back any opinions about it. |

Jigenjuke has been working on one, it's an awesome build, especially when you get into the scaled down coin door (made by crashwg): http://forum.arcadecontrols.com/index.php?topic=106894.0 |

iTea Guy - Welcome to the forums. Always nice to flush out a lurker ;) . You're design is more in line with what I was thinking, flatter the better. I'll definetly watch this one once you decide to put it up in the project announcements. You are going to build it right? Cheffo and Vigo - great examples, I think i saw that Galaga up on a youtube video - seeing the image jogged a loose memory. I can't see myself walking into a pub with one of those tho I like them a lot. I wonder what all I have to sacrifice to get much flatter. I'm definetly thinking that the CP needs to be near flush with the playing surface. Ark - If I knew a site to jail break my IPAD running 5.whatever it is I would be building that classic mini pac-man time meow. May have to get a galaxy or another android pad just to play with. I don't think that the viewing angle on the old 19" WS LCD I ripped out of an HP Pav will support this kinda build. Any recommendations on monitors? I was thinking about getting two replacement IPAD screens and mounting them together but this creates a whole other slew of technical issues and doesn't get the size I'm looking for. |

Very low profile (some parts are not as integrated as they could be) |

That's pretty sweet build wise. Agree that speakers are best inside the cab and I'm not crazy about a few details but all that is incidental to the concept. I think it would be hard to get much slimmer than that without the control decks being higher than the screen level, which would be a no-go. Chrome T-molding is always a crowd pleaser though. I want to see iTea Guy's get built. That had pretty nice lines. I may just have to shelve my next plan for one of these though, they're starting to grow on me. |
