Mr. LACAYO, a lonely Bachelor with no friends, returns home and places his newly acquired Lucky Wander Boy in its reserved spot thereby completing his perfect collection. Mr. LACAYO then goes out and purchases a fine bottle of Champaign and returns home to the roar of fire trucks and the smoldering ruins of his collection. :'(

I'm starting to accumulate cabinets even with emulation. I'm moving away from swappable panels and towards multiple cabs. So far I've got 2 working uprights, 1 cockpit, and a jukebox. I'm also working on a upright pole position.

@MameMaster
My avatar is actually a screen shot from the Apple][
version of LodeRunner running on the AppleWin emulator.

But if you want to save the PongMovie onto your hard drive,
you should be able to right click on the link and choose SaveTargetAs and pick a folder where you want to save it.
It will save it as a flash movie.
 
You can find it here

Just scroll down a bit.
