How do you deal with using MAME in 2 different rooms?

for sure.. slower than Pentium II AFAIK probably work just fine with older build of Mame and classic games though.

Actually about the same speed.

SirPoonga:
my roms are stored on my mame machine. I network map a drive letter on my arcade machine.
Fat_Trucker:
Yup. Have a seperate PC in my cab (actually used it as an excuse to upgrade my desktop pc and just used my old one).
Everything is installed seperately inside the cab and you simply open the coin door to access the dvd drive for updating etc.
Some people use a wireless network card so they can update their cab remotely.
Cab PC:
AMD Athlon 2800XP (2.2Ghz)
80 Gb Maxtor HDD
Arcade VGA from Ultimarc
Soundblaster Live soundcard
512Mb PC3200 DDR
MSI DVD Rom.
Running Win XP and Command line MAME with MameWah FE.

I never ever, ever update anything in my cabinets, once the machine is done it is closed up and never updated. Updates are just trouble, can break what previously worked, and make games that previously ran full speed fun slower. Sure it won't matter much for a few updates, but after a few years your cab will be crappy and slow.
