What would you do different with all these new products that have come out in the last couple of years? |

I would have shaped it a little differently, and would have decased the monitor in it. NOTE: My wife was the reason I DIDN'T decase the monitor in the first place. It was a brand-new 21", and she didn't want me to void the warranty....which is up now....so I'm going to decase it into my next cab, and replace it with a 19" vertical. |

I originally hacked a mouse for my spinner and hacked a Crystal trackball to be used as my trackball. I would now simply buy a trackball from Ultimarc and a spinner from Oscar. |

I don't regret anything, really. I just upgrade. I had my cabinet built before I first logged in to this forum. But I have learned a lot about cabs since. I used to have two hacked daisychained Sidewinders for controls. I have since replaced them with a JPAC. I used to run DOS 7.0. I have since upgraded to WINXP so I could use MAMEWAH and run ePSXe. I used to have a Matrox G400 running right to the WG monitor. I had to turn the monitor on separately from the cab power after the Matrox card started sending 15 khz. It sucked. The Arcade VGA and the JPAC helped there. The only thing left is the cosmetic stuff. I still have the black marble contact on the CP and the Wrestlefest marquee mounted, but I don't care. Function over fashion, I always say. APf |

I was lucky. As when I started my cab, the IPAC4 just came out. I actually bought the 1st IPAC4 from Andy. |
