How far will this PC get me?
USSEnterprise:
What about an earlier linux distro with XMAME?
MYX:
I had a SONY Vaio 233 mhz (MMX) w 128m of ram and was able to play a heck of a lot of games. I love Assult and some of the newer Atari games like marble madness. I could not play these on this computer. I was given a PIII 650 mhz w 256 of RAM and was planning on using this as my machine for the new Cab. Would I be able to play em or should I add another $200 to get a 1.5 ghz off e-bay? I am not into alot of the newer games (95 +) and have no real need to play the CHDs. (I would however love to see Hydrothunder MAMEd).
