I am really tempted to just make some extremely low cost/low effort cabs and unload them on craigslist for some easy money. With as many people trying to sell a galaga for 1500, there must be stupid rich people buying them.

This game has a LEGAL REUNION BOARD installed.

The monitor is a new 22 inch Sony Triniton

Anyone else see a conflict here? Seems fishy to me. Maybe he's expecting everyone will opt for the "upgraded" 48-in-1. I don't think they've made even-numbered trinitron tubes since the mid 90's.

Color vectors are an expensive pain in the butt. Thats why you see so many gutted Tempest cabs.
