Cost to me: $0. So so far I have spent 153.02$ BUT I get ~ $19.80 back from Microsoft Live Ebay promo. Will take a few weeks but it makes my cost of controls and IPAC less than $85 Only things that I plan on buying: T molding will be 17.99$ on eBay. I have wood left over from cab project, enough to make CP and fix 2 pieces on top. Will have to buy no tools, a friend will do the wood work for me. I plan on panting the cab black but I still have black paint left from a project last month. Didn't have plans for the paint but I kept it anyways. Piano hinge for CP SO. $85 + 50 + hardware supplies :D --- End quote --- Yeah, well I have you beat. Betson Multisync arcade monitor - 0$ (bought before the cabinet was built and was just lying around unused) wood - 0$ (left overs "borrowed" from nearby construction site) PC - 0$ (stolen from Best Buy) Wires/connectors/fasteners/screws/paint - 0$ (I don't count that stuff) Artwork/t-molding - 0$ (birthday present) Arcade controls - 0$ (Xmas present) Cup holders - $5.99 Marquee backlight - 0$ (ripped out from kitchen cabinets) Total cost to me: $5.99!!! ;D |

If they are from your wife I assume the money comes from the same pool? |
