a lot of time, thought, and creativity in that cab

[danny_galaga]

i think his problem is that he targeted the wrong demographic. really he should have been aiming at the UNIVAC-BENDIX emulator scene

wow. I've yet to see a cab that put the trashcade to shame.

I mean, it has a slikstick franken panel... You can see the computer monitors sides....

It's not really even a.... cabinet.... It's like a couple of pieces of wood mixed with random computer and arcade parts.... I wouldn't be suprised to see the monitor under the joysticks...

wow.

[maraxle]

Mamey!

I especially liked the part where he said...

"Due to the size and complexity of this system, shipping is impossible, so you're either going to have to pick it up -- or I'll deliver it within 150 miles of ZIP code 55347. "

Lots of complex 90 degree angles there! Must have taken a while to get the monitor shelf angled...(why the heck is it angled anyway???) 

[Tailgunner]

On the plus side, no classic cabs were mutilated in the seller's construction effort.

[menace]

holy man that has to be an experiment of some kind--"how many stupid people bid on ebay" or something--I just wouldn't have the nerve to list an ikea rack with a computer in it, the guy must have big cajones...

[Gunstar Hero]

He's not selling a a cab really, just a frame and the stuff on it.

"MAME System w/ ect ect..."

I think it's a pretty good idea actually, just a frame to hold your CPU, stick and monitor in the right places. Makes for a cool PC gaming rig.

That one is maybe a bit too... heavy duty looking. Still if it was a little more refined, it woud be a pretty neat, versatile game rack.

Better than that overpriced X-Arcade one anyhow.

I have a car I rolled 5 times, and I'm going to sell it. You're not buying the car, you're buying the metal. Interested? 

[Gunstar Hero]

No.

Unlike the MAME-frame, rolling a car 5 times is a BAD idea. And I don't think I need a thousand pounds of metal.

Thanks anyways.

I need to build some sort of 2x4 rack over my desk to hold all my monitors. I would LIKE to use six of them, but they won't all fit on my desk.

Having it may be a good idea.
Trying to pawn it off for over $900US is the exact opposite of a good idea.

If you built the rack, you could probably fit 4 above, and 2 below. 

The only pain in the butt is plugging/unplugging them all in

Paige, it'd cost you prolly $10 for materials, and it's just straight cuts.  Stop procrastinating and DO IT already

(did that help you get motivated?    )

[DarkKobold]

I think the pure entertainment of rolling a car over 5 times in a row (assuming you survive) would be worth the drop in value.

[Floyd10]

Um, its not even a mame cab... im not sure he knows what mame is: "all you need is an emulator and the ROMs (I can point you in the right direction for those...)"

he didnt mention a front end, which no one really knows about anyway, so, how cxan he expect them to know that!!!


grrr... time to use my favorite new smiley:

[hooded_paladin]

"Bomb proof"?  Hyuk hyuk.

Now, if you'll just speak louder and more clearly into my collar, I've got a few
questions I need to ask you.
