Pros and cons on cabinet decisions
fantoboy:
Making a bartop- need help making some decisions:
IPAC2 vs mini-pac- opinions? Seems like mini-pac is easier and has trackball capabilities
Cathode vs LED lighting for the marquee- any difference?
Gameongrafix vs this guy: http://www.hyperspin-fe.com/forum/showthread.php?14155-Decals-and-Printing-for-your-HyperSpin-Cabinet
thanks for the input!

i recently went minipac when converting my Neo Geo to mame. Absolutely no regrets - super easy to install and I'm not worried about super tight and precise cable management. If you're wanting pretty zip ties and routed wires, you probably won't be happy with the limited length of the ultimarc wiring harness. it cant be beat for ease of installation though.

If you're unsure of whether or not you want a trackball you could always get the IPAC2 and then an OptiWiz later for trackball installation if that's what you want.
Downside is you're using more space and more USB ports, but if you decide against a trackball you saved yourself some cash.
Pricewise it would be pretty similar.

I have to choose Gameongrafix, I've used him a number of times and while I can't say there was never any problems, he was always quick to respond and correct the error.

I guess the ipac2 vs mini-pac really depends on if you plan on having a trackball.
I would think Led would be the simplest way to go for the marquee light but I've never used cathode tubes.
I have dealt with Gamongrafix a few times and have never been disappointed. My cpo came out great and its very durable.
