it's a pc fan that allows you to program a message that it will display by blinking LEDS... i'm getting ready to move so i dont have alot of arcade build time in the near future, but thought someone may be interested in this.

Very cool 8)
I could imagine some Pacman chasing ghosts and marching Space Invaders animations on those.
May have to grab a couple methinks :)
PacMon:
Whoa!! I have several ideas for those fans. Very cool indeed! :applaud:

It would be neat to have the message change 'on the fly' and display information like the game you are playing and the year it came out or something.

There is a review [here]. There are a few youtube videos too.

I dont think you will be easily be able to program on the fly but I bet someone could figure it out. I think im going to control them with my pacdrive. You will only be able to turn the the sequence on and off but they should still look pretty cool.
