My Pac Man runs just pac man games(pac man, Ms.pac,jr. Pac, Super pac) |

I was thinking about this the other day, and really, a used PCB is usually the same or cheaper than the equivalent PC + JPAC setup. The advantage is playing more than one game. |

Diskettes have a limited number of read/writes before they go byebye, but optical discs can last indefinitely if they're taken care of. --- End quote --- That is assuming that the computer/BIOS/OS you use will actually BOOT from a CD though. I've run into alot of older PC's that won't. |

I don't remember the last time I used a PC with an ATX motherboard that couldn't do it. |

By the time you factor in the cost of building the replica cabinet, it would probably be cheaper to buy a dedicated machine. All the little bits add up. |
