Christmas is fast approaching.   That being said, if you can get your control panel wired and your software/FE all setup prior to the cabinet/monitor showing up it shouldnt take very long to get the cabinet pieced together.  I'm didnt put my panel together but I am sure that will take the longest time other than maybe setting up your FE.

Yes and No. Yes I bought the UAII but they are putting it together and installing the monitor. From what I am told the only thing I will have to do is install the CP and PC when it arrives. Oh, I need to buy monitor glass and install that myself too. There are a few other things I will be taking on myself as well, marquee, side art etc...

Mameroom is also putting together the control panel and all of the wiring; the hold up right now is the Electric Ice buttons from Groovy Gamer Gear.

Current OS is Vista 64.

Two front ends are currently sat up; everything listed below is sat up in Game Ex and some in HyperSpin.

Flake:
Question, where did you get your pinball emulator's from?  For some strange reason I cant seem to find anything on them.  Can you provide a link?

Thanks!

You'll have the mother of all arcade cabinets.

Visitor Q:
Sure...

Future Pinball: http://www.futurepinball.com/
Visual Pinball: http://www.randydavis.com/vp/intro.htm
PinMame: http://pinmame.retrogames.com/

Future Pinball works on its own.

Visual Pinball and PinMame work together. Visual Pinball emulates the tables and PinMame emulates the score boards/ displays.

Let me know if you have any questions getting them sat up.  ;)

Do you notice a huge difference in boot time using that 1000 RPM Raptor drive?

It takes 20 to 25 seconds from the time I turn on my PC until I am in Windows, not bad. Keep in mind this too, I have the first generation Raptor drive as well. There are newer, faster models out already but you do pay a high price for speed and certainly less space than most other hard drives on the market right now.

Compared to the other PCs I own, by far this is the fastest all around but it is close to bleeding edge technology too. With that said there is always going to be something better.

I think when it really shined was install Vista, about 20 mins if I recall correctly.

All and all so far its a nice, fast drive.
