---smurfing--- ---Cleveland steamer---. This is absolutely beautiful. I don't care what happened 25 years ago, in a way they did us all a big favor.

Unpacking that must have felt like ........well I guess you know what I mean.....the first time.....

Totally boring to have a cab like that. No CPO's to be replaced, no side-art to be hunted and installed, not even new T-molding :P

God I hate you :D

You're right about that poor backlighting of the buttons. If you pack everything back up nicely and ship to me I will install a much better lighting and send it right back to you....in about a year or two, three.....five........ :D

Its actually more of a mudroom/laundry room.  Since it has an outside door and tile floor, it was easy to get the machine in there, unpack, then move within the house without damaging the wood floors or walls.

Yea, I thought of a lite augmentation for the buttons, but even the slightest variance from stock would set off my OCD.   ;)

So now the question is:  where else are there NIB machines hiding in a warehouse?

If we knew of NIB machines hiding in a warehouse do you really think they'd still be there?   ;D

A bought a half warehouse full of games here in Europe, but I'm not telling anyone. Will start selling them in about 15 years when I retire :P

Liar!  If you had half a warehouse full of games you wouldn't be here!  You'd be there playing them/working on them.
