Post by: slayj on February 08, 2005, 04:05:09 pm
Just FYI....>Target has a 27 inch tv for 149.99 that is 25 inches in width, maintains the same audio input when turned off, and will power back on when unplugged/plugged.

Man thanks. I was just headed out the door to Best Buy to check out some of their tvs but I have a Target right around the corner. Didn't even think to go there. Thanks again. ;D

Thats the one............however, the width is not 26 inches.  A rep at Circuit City measured it and it was 25 inches.

I picked one of those up on Monday at Circuit City. Mine is indeed 26 inches wide at the widest spot. I haven't tested the picture yet, but it looks like it will make a great monitor for a mame cab.

Since it is indeed 26 inches, and I am putting it in the Project Arcade books standard cab which is 26 inches, do you think there will be a heat problem?  Should some fans be placed in the rear for circulation?  Keep in mind that I cannot widen the cab at this point.

Aventura?

If this is the one I'm thinking of, the picture looked pretty poor...

I've had mine up and running in my cab for about a week now and I have no complaints about the quality of the s-vid picture. Of course windows is a bit hard to read, but that's to be expected.

For the price ($149) I have no complaints.

Too bad it doesn't have component inputs.  I may have picked one up.
