Absolutely gorgeous CP
1UP:
I think this thing is jaw-dropping! A bit impractical and overpriced, but jaw-dropping nonetheless. The port replicator is way overkill. I understand the need for a PS2 connector, but what on earth do you need the printer port for? A simple USB hub and a PS2 to USB adapter would do the job.
Lose the LCD and the trigger stick, flip the controls on the left side, and center the 4-way, and this thing would be kickass on the right cabinet. As far as the "unfinished" edges, I kind of like it. In fact, the whole thing might look good with a frosted finish. Definitely not for the budget minded, but I'm sure you could find someone who'd buy it.

You need to follow the analagy through to the end. Would you marry her and have her as your "primary woman?" I am sure that any of us might find 3 or 4 useful and attractive aspects about her :-* ;D, but somehow I don't see her as the one many would want to settle down with. Ask yourself,
Think she'd be happy with one man forever?
Think you could have a stimulating intellectual conversation with her? Or a technical one?
Think she'd stay home on Saturday nights with a sick kid?
Think she'd love you if you put on a few pounds?
Think she'd put up with a zillion arcade machines around the mansion that were created before she was born?
I may be wrong, but probably not. ;D
{edit - sorry to hijack the thread. back to topic.
If I hit the lottery I would surely buy that CP just for the cool factor. Until then I will build practical ones!}
