1st cabinet questions

I had a 27" TV in my first cabinet and it was more then fine for me. I had it all powered with a smart strip and wired a button on top of the cabinet to turn everything on at once, just hacked the power button off the PC. I'm going with an LCD in the new cab I'm getting. Can't comment on it as I don't have it yet.

I've been using a 27 inch TV with s-video, and it looks good to me.  I'm sure an arcade monitor would look better, of course, but I'm content to stick with what I've got at this point.

venkman:

.. keep us posted :)

subedriver:

thanks for the replies everyone!  anybody have pics of how they mounted their tv in their cab?

I don't have pics of the old cab, but on mine I just had a piece of 2 x 4 sitting behind the bottom back of the tv and it just rested up against it. Nothing fancy hehe. I'm sure there's alot better ways to mount it "solidly" though.
