i picked up a 19" kds monitor at office max on clearance, was marked 180 down from 250, when i checked out the manager came over and said "give it to him for 150" that made my day! it barely fit in the old millipede cab, but it fits, the glass touches the monitor at the top, but not too tight it does all fit together. the last monitor i have had since i built the cab was a 15", what a huge difference. it feels larger than life when you are standing in front of it now, and games like pacman and tempest look closer to their acutal sizes instead of small.
im a happy camper.
now if i could just get that optipac and prospinner sold i can offord to get a happs usb interface and finally get my trackball working! i havent been able to play millipede in my milipede cab yet, and have had it up and runnin mame for almost a year!
i have also posted some finished pics of my playstation pad hacks i just finished for someone if anyone is interested, dc pictures coming soon.

Nice deal, a 14" in a cab must have been really small.
Anyway, from the topic, I was expecting to see a hi score for game :)

Yeah, we need more topics about ball bearings, shafts, male and female connectors, mounting positions, "will it fit in a 1 1/8" hole?", "what's better 3" or 2 1/4" ?" and lube... er... nvr mind... =P
