Where should I put my dreamcast?

I just bought myself a Dreamcast off ebay for the sole reason that I want to put a cabinet around it.  All I'm interested in is new fighters (MvC 1 and 2, CvS 1 and 2, SFIII, etc) so I couldn't care less about analogue controls and all that jazz.  So the whole thing will be bundled up in it's own cabinet as soon as I get the free time to build it.

Under my TV, of course!

It might be hard to find a Dreamcast for $20, but they are undeniably cheap. Just search them on Ebay. Buying 2 would not be hard on the wallet.

I already have a Dreamcast I don't ever use, but I'm not prepared to part with it. I'd like to think that someday I'll build a cabinet for it.

Dreamcast guns work great with VGA monitors. I play confidential mission and house of the dead 2 all the time on my Dreamcast cab which has a VGA monitor. Oh and if you can put it in your cab; go for it.

I think getting another one is the anwer I was looking for.  It seemed like such a dumb question to post, but now I'm really glad I did.  I'll put the one I already in the cabinet first, but I'll leave a spot for the other where my consoles are.  The cabinet has a 27 inch tv.

Make sure you can access it through the front so that changing the games is easy. 

I love my Dreamcast hooked to my VGA monitor, and the gun works fine.  Now if I could ever get around to building a showcase cab for this beast, it would be just like playing HOD2 at the arcade!
