There is a possibility of another monitor review from kevin.  If you would like this vote for it here:

(or vote for whatever else you want reviewed)

Since the #1 choice on the poll, the ROR3 light gun interface, doesn't work with MAME, the NeoTec monitor is looking more and more like my next "big ticket" review item.

I'm taking suggestions right now for anything you'd like reviewed, and I'll run another poll soon to help narrow down the choice.

Ya, I'm with whammoed.  An arcade monitor round up would just be the shiznit.  It's never been done before.  Three monitors and what they can each do.  Very interesting stuff.

Do they make any plug  and play 25" multisync monitors? I can't seem to justify a 27", since my old favorites were 25" (Turtles, Simpsons, NBA Jam, etc)

I've got another cab kit review coming up very soon, but it isn't the MAMEroom cab (although I'm hoping to review that one as well before the end of the year.)

I think a NEOTECH 19" Multisync should be next.

I had suggested that one also.  The larger monitors seem to get all the attention.    ;)
