--- Quote from: HOTR6 on January 26, 2006, 03:43:02 pm ---A friend of mine BOUGHT one for her husband. She paid over $3000 for it. I was there when the shop delivered it and I saw what they had done and figured I could do that for MUCH cheaper!
She had a few parties and everyone LOVED the thing withis little 17" screen and played all these games. My husband liked it ALOT since he was an arcade junky in his youth and EVERYTIME we get near an arcade he ALWAYS wants to go in and play so I mostly built it for him. I like to play frogger and Donkey Kong and stuff.
Now that I have built it I LOVE to show it off! It was really nice when my stupidly rich brother in law came over to the house 1/4 of the size of his with no Ferrari parked in the garage like his, and he was so impressed and loved the cab, it wasn't even finished yet (he was playing on the keyboard before I got my I Pac) Just to have something cool and be able to impress him was worth the time and effort! My friends kids think it is the greatest thing too! It is fun!
My husband insisted it be wood grain and so it does look good in the living room!

Wait a second, you built a cabinet for your husband?  How is your relationship?  Is it pretty strong, and if not, what are you doing this weekend? :)

Ha Ha! Yup I built one for him! AND I just found out the new TopGun light gun I bought is going to be here today so he can play police trainer!
HE was actually supposed to build the cabinet for me so I could put the computer in it but he never got around to doing it so I ended up doing it while he was in Iraq. Must have been quite a shock for him to come home to this huge peice of furniture that wasn't there when he left!
I will build you a cabinet to your specs and even help you do everything. It was fun! I figure once he brings over some of the Marines he works with I will be doing several builds. I am excited!
