I know I actively hate them, but that's me. Why take a chance on some drunk fool spilling his Hamm's all over your beautiful CP? ;D

I always took it as an annoyance because no classic cabinet employs cup holders.

Well.... unless you count cocktails but they are cup holders.

Malenko:

cup holders encourage drinks near / on  the machines. Not in my house (*cough* Garage *cough*)

dkersten:

In my game room, drinking is encouraged, lol.  A little over a week ago I was trying out a new update for the ipac uio to enable wake keys and I had the keyboard tray out and a beer sitting behind the keyboard.  I went to launch mala and pushed the keyboard tray in and dumped the full beer directly on top of the keyboard.. At least I didn't do that on the CP, lol. 

I figure a cupholder is gonna keep the beer in place and not let it spill, where not having one is going to be a recipe for disaster.. At least when the cabinet is sitting between the beer fridge and the kegerator..

But I didn't put cupholders in, even though I have a great spot for them.. I figured from the comments in other posts that it was some kind of blasphemy, second only to using "cade" in the name, lol..

It's different if you spill beer onto your cab as opposed to your friends doing it.

I spilled water on my laptop and now there's a hard water stain. I can clean it (it's long and involved) but it's also a reminder to be more careful. If your friends do it, they generally won't give a ---fudgesicle--- and are likely to do it again.

Well, this too.  >:D

And a cupholder invites liquid near the cabs, which should be a no-no. At least the ones on the sides aren't as bad as the ones built in the CP. What's even worse is when they put the beer ON TOP of your machine...

But hey, buy my cupholders when I list them for sale!!!  :applaud:
