Good job Cheffo - you scared him away. He couldn't even finish a sentence in his 2nd post.

The Modern Arcade link was intended to show what I think would be a better way to do a coffee table arcade (I guess I could have explained it, but that would have involved me doing stuff) -- using an LCD and having the entire top flip up. That way, the top can be a single piece and immune to spills.

I'm doing this as my wife will only let me put it in the house, if it blends well with the scheme of the house, hence the need to disguise it as part of the coffee table.

Just a suggestion...
Did you see Knievel's work? This may be something to think about as it's as classy of a cabinet that you will ever see. Not sure of your home decor, but this may blend in nicely and I guaranty you'll get compliments. I'm sure you'll be able to stick it somewhere in the house and it would look sweet.
