What about the Billabs?  Is that gone too?  I notice that their website kicks back the message, "This website is temporarily unavailable, please try again later."

I spoke to Bil of Billabs a couple of days ago, they are still a going concern as far as I know.

huntrm:
I called Wells-Gardner about two weeks ago, and was able to snag one of their last 10 of these.  Am building my first cabinet, thought I'd go this route. 

I was able to put this in my homemade cabinet over the weekend, it's a beast of a monitor.  I hope the cost for the unit and the bezel was worth it (~$500). 

P.S.  First post, will be needing a lot of hand-holding over the next few months!   :banghead:

I purchased one directly from Wells Gardner last month.

I received it the next day. (It only had to go about 250 miles.)

It was manufactured in November of 2009.

Absolutely...I have ZERO regrets...its an authentic picture when paired with the right video card/utility and can't be beat.  I just pray mine will last the long haul but again I have a spare so <knock on wood> ;)
