Isn't that in the FAQ?
Seriously, I read the FAQs, and did a small amount of searching before posting my first questions. My questions went beyond the FAQ, and also got into some opinion areas.

Sir Auros:
I think the FAQ would do better integrated into the site...also doesn't help that a lot of the topics I went into from it were derailed quickly or just not helpful enough.
MoonDog:
yup! that's why i haven't made any posts yet (well, until now).
this is a great resource with a wealth of knowledge. i'll probably have some questions at some point, but so far the FAQ's and other posts seem to be keeping me busy.
monkeybomb:
I read the entire faqs before I posted. I think the faqs are awesome, but some of the answers aren't that clear. The question I see asked most that is answered in the faqs is about the minimum specs needed for a mame computer. IMO The problem is that the discussion simply gives extremes. What people really want is a chart of what games have worked with their speed computer. I know that OS and mame version are also factors but there are games that run on 1.3g that won't on 600m regardless of how hard I try to screw it up. Ideally a chart would contain a few representative games and the optimized OS and mame version for that system. :-\

So if your a newbie. Read the FAQ, Read the Project Arcade book and do a search before you post any of your basic questions. As there's a wealth of information on this board and it'll most likely have you get on your way.
Thanks

Wow, I guess you were never a newbie. Just incase you forgot, here are some of your earlier posts. I even used the Search Function to find them, my that thing is handy.
790 / Main Forum / More NEWBIE Questions - Be Gentle on: March 25, 2002, 10:33:10 PM
I understand these questions may have been answered 100's of times before. But I hope you can bare with me and answer some of my basic NEWBIE questions. As I just want to make sure I have a firm understanding of MAME:
5: Is there a min system requirements to play the all the games? I understand a AMD Duron 850 with at least 256 of ram will do... but is that too much or too little? And what is more importmant when running a ROM. Horsepower or RAM?
788 / Main Forum / Marquee & Control Panel Art on: March 29, 2002, 10:05:15 AM
Just a couple of questions:
- What are the dimentions of a standard Marquee?
- Where can one download Marquee's that goes in to the Mame/Marquee directory
- I've seen a couple of peope have created there own custom artwork for there control panels. Just wondering, how you did created this (What program did you use) and does any have a site where I can d/l or a place where I can view some custom Control Panel designs?
Thanks

I could have listed more examples, in fact your first 15 or so posts were full of questions that could have been answered by the faq.
