Yup, you nailed it. Think you witnessed that first hand if memory serves.

Yeah I was there when it went down. That was about the time I realized that KLOV is more about preserving cab prices than preserving history.

Thats why I like it here better. Everyone is more grounded.

Klov used to be the place people would run off and snicker when they thought they were ripping you off on RGVAC, so it left a bad taste in my mouth 20 years ago.

Somewhere, probably in a landfill, is an RGVAC T-shirt I owned. One of the most cringe things I ever purchased but that was back in the days before amazon was delivering PCBs and joysticks in 2 hours and anything remotely arcade related was cool.

Yeah we've got some ---uvulas--- around here too (looks in mirror) but they at least have the decency to be upfront about it. KLOV always struck me as a place where people would stab you in the back and then complain about how you got your blood all over their brand new knife. There's good people over there too though I suppose, I just like hanging out with you idgits better. :burgerking:

I saw your side panel cut outs as well, looking good. Are you going full vector monitor and all? I’m pretty deep in the vector stuff. Got a couple of Amplifone clones on order and will be rewinding yokes, etc. There’s also some other exciting stuff going on with vector generation of Mame. LMK

Thanks Arroyo. I had them professionally cut on a CNC machine. I knew I wouldn't have the time or the patience to cut out the cabinet. As far as the software goes I want to place the following Star Wars arcade games on it:

* Star Wars (1983)
* Return of the Jedi (1984)
* Empire Strikes Back (1985)
* Arcade (1993)
* Trilogy Arcade (1998)
I have a feeling though I will only play Star Wars (1983) and Trilogy Arcade (1998) in the end. So I feel like a vector monitor wouldn't be the way to go. I do have an old CRT computer monitor I have had since 1999 and if it still works I want to decase it for this machine.
