I haven't tried this yet but it looks like an interesting idea.
Check out the Glow Sheet half way down the page.......
http://www.glowire.com/new_products.htmIt would be great if you were limited in space... possibly a bartop unit.
edit: I just saw the size of this stuff..... its pretty small. 6 x 9 is the large size.....

It still might do for a small marqee.
Or how about a light up mame logo on your control panel top? There still might be uses.
