I'll dip my toe in this pool...

I didn't see the OP ask for advice on his business model.  I did see the OP ask for advice on selling ROMS - and he received excellent feedback on that.  I think it was pretty clear from the start that this was not an attempt at a classic or custom one off cab but instead a way to play emu'd games in a cabinet at a reduced rate. 

When I see a cab like this I'll try to answer any questions the builder has (if they haven't already been well addressed) and then move on.  I'm not moving on because I'm better or don't like it, but because I'm here for different reasons.  By and large I'm not a seller and I build for vastly different motivations I suspect.  There is no value judgement on motivations by the way.  Getting into it with the OP about the build design and business acumen is asinine.  Caveat Emptor bishes.  Now if he opens a b/s/t thread and is marketing the thing that's different - but that wasn't this.  I don't understand the logic behind, "I'm trying to save you from other's mistakes" that Paige put forth when he has not one dog in the fight.  The tank stick does not violate any building layout issues that we try and correct on behalf of future players (angled sticks) and the cab design precludes the use of a CRT so most issues are moot from the start.  Is it simplistic and somewhat cookie cutter - yeah... but that's the point.

This thread is a ridiculous read because you have two groups of people that don't speak the same fundamental language talking about two different things - and everybody thinks they're communicating.
