Thanks "Pocketz" or "Pocketbikez"

I just want to say thanks for all of your well built cabs and great webpages, you introduced to me this, even if you didnt know this, and I think you have the best cabinets. Everyone check out his website, its very good...  netbox.home.mindspring.com, and I think all of his cabinets should be put into the hall of fame... Just wanted to get that out.Thanks again.

Thanks for the kind comments. I guess my solution wasnt modular or rotating control panels but multiple cabinets. I like the atmosphere of multiple cabinets running, the lights and sounds, and its nice to wander from machine to machine and play different games without the hassle of changing panels.

the mame marquee packs:
http://emam.mameworld.net

you can find them here also:
http://www.klov.com

or at:
http://www.arcadeflyers.com

use your fav graphics program to arrange them into a marquee.

Do you, or are planning to in the future, have any consoles in your cabinets?

no consoles in the cabinets. ive tried out some of the snes and other console emulators but it isnt my passion like classic arcade gaming. when i build the home-theater/mame pc i'll put some console emulators in there, it will be more fun to sit on the couch and play on a TV with hand controllers.

What about a dreamcast, there cheap, the graphics match up to ps2's and x box's, and u get full speed arcade games such as showtime, capcom vs st fighter, nfl blitz, crazy taxi, house of the deads2, and rush.
