I really like it.  Be nifty to have two set up in a room, each see the same thing on separate monitors.  That'd rock.

Looks like you would get a lot of glare if you were in a room with any kind of light in it.

No worse than if you were playing on a cocktail, I expect.

The difference between this cab and a cocktail is the viewing angle. You could get glare on this one when you might not get it on a cocktail.

I'm guessing you straddle it?  There's not much hangover for the CP.

The description on the webpage boasts that it'll play the full MAME rom collection yet it has a vertical monitor... Apparently they put more thought into looks than actually techincals or practicality.
