Well, I finally finished my cab.

Is it me or is that control panel at a really sharp angle down?

But looks great other than that.

It's just the pic.  It only has about a 10 degree pitch.

Were you standing on a chair or something when you took the pictures or are you just REALLY FREAGIN' tall?

 It looks great.  Lets hear some more about it.
Whats under the hood, etc?

*lol*...well I'm 6'0, but I was holding the camera higher to get the entire machine in frame, I could not back up too much as there were things behind me in boxes. 

Specs:

Old converted Tekken 2 cab that I bought off of the local arcade
SlikStik CO2 control panel
Betson Imperial 27" multisync (BTW, this thing is great!)
Arcadevga
AMD Semperon 2200+, 512mb ram, 120gb HDD
Creative labs 2.1 speaker system
The marquee and side art were gifts from my wife.

And probably the smallest touch, but one of the best, is I purchased one of the power stips reviewed on retroblast that is all controlled by one outlet. (e.g., I can turn the computer on, and everything else turns on (monitor, marquee light, etc...))
