I went w/ a cocktail table to save on room, and it doubles as my coffee table in my living room. I will have both an upright and keep my cocktail, one day. |

I admit I'm not a big fan of cocktail table as I get bad-ass backache, but if I had to I'd get one from our very own st. I love both designs, but prefer the actual table design of the series 1 table, shame it's not available locally anymore. Quick question st - how is the viewing angle on your cabs? Most LCD's I've tried suffer from ghosting or inverting when viewing them at the angle a cocktail cab requires. Any pics? |

When using an LCD for a coffee table you can do 2 things: 1: If you're on a budget and use a TN display, mount it UPSIDE DOWN and use the video-card driver to feed it a 180 degrees rotated desktop. TN's are much worse from below than from the top! 2: Use S-IPS or S-PVA panels, and coffee-table angles do not affect image that much. |

Craig The viewing angle on these is superb. I use Samsung 178 x 178 degrees screens... but worth every penny. As far as seeing it... you can see it in the flesh in July at Insert Coin. :) For the very early mk1s, I used to do as Blanka suggested... physically mouting upside down and flipping in software. But it was too dirty for an item at that cost and I had MAME do some funny things. Plus when it booted, everything was upside down... and that didn't look good! |
