Title: Should I buy it, what do you think?
Post by: Apollo on June 10, 2004, 06:04:08 am: This would make a pretty funky looking cab, apparently it comes with computer, screen, coin mech etc pretty cheap really. Don't know what the PC specs are but hey what do you think?

Post by: Industen on June 10, 2004, 03:44:02 pm: This cabinet needs to be made into a Jukebox ASAP. It has so much potential that I wouldn't have gave it a second thought in purchasing it. Try turning it on it's side visually... you have half of a sit down cabinet. ;)

Post by: AlexSledge on June 10, 2004, 09:01:32 pm: Very nice, but too high for my taste once shipping is figured in. I hope who ever picks up one of them will give us some schematics so I can whip something like that up in the shop. :)

Here's another, even has a phone!!

Awesome MAME Cab!! (http://www.pantheonholdings.com/ez.htm) ;D ;)
