This sort of thing is what I seem to like http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16856110075

need to find one pre built or in a package deal.

well that is a barebones so it is technically already a package deal, just add CPU+RAM and you are done.  And as for the mini-itx linked above you probably wont be able to run PSX/N64 at full speed because it seems to be a weaker version of Via Mini-ITX systems which I use for SNES/NES emulation and it can do those just fine but it has trouble with most N64 games.

Well since it runs Windows XP too in theory it should run MAME on there pretty well....I'm not really sure, I don't use it for Mame....and of course there's a Mac Mame too.

knave:

As a PC tech I could make all sorts of Mac jokes...but the truth is I like macs just fine.  The down side to the mac mini is cost.  for the same $800 I could build a better PC for mame.(for $800 I could build a darn nice machine for anything)  If you need it for it'a size then that's another thing entirely but still then there are other options for your $800.

Yea your right.. I am thinking I will do the PC thing.

thx
