pc picture rant
danny_galaga:
WHY do people have pictures of their pcs on their mame project sites? surely we all know what one looks like by now, and besides which what does it matter since its not going to be seen anyway.
almost as pointless is seeing pics of your new buttons/ joysticks etc straight outa the box.
you want your site to be informative on the subject of mame and the cabinet you build, so forget the pic of a pc. you might as well post a pic of bill gates. i mean, MAYBE theres someone who doesnt know what he looks like...
danny_galaga:
and just in case that someone is reading this...
Zakk:
I just gave that fella a chunk of change for my xbox and copy of Halo 2...
As for the concept of the computer pics, I dunno, I don't mind it. Kinda like if I took a Chevy and actually made it cool by putting a Ford engine in it, I'd like to see a picture of the engine before it goes in the chassis. The "horsepower under the hood" as it were.
(Oh and yes, I'm just trying to get the GM crowd worked up, it might lead to as big a debate as the election!) 8)
paigeoliver:
Engineswapping brands of V8 engines just to be cool is stupid.
Now, I could see doing it if you had an engineless 36' Chevy and you already had a nice rebuilt Ford 302 laying around.

yeah, mebbe if its all shiny and polished and has chrome bits hangin off it. but a pic of a plain pc case?
PS: putting a ford motor in a chevy is just plain wrong!! never the twain should meet!! fords are good for something though. those 9" diffs are pretty tough... ;)
PPS: although im sure at least ONE model a was improved greatly by dropping a 350 in it ;D
