Purpose of the marquee? Can you do away with it?
rovingmind:
My wife said an arcade cabinet in the living room would be Ok as long as SHE got to paint the sides and the marquee.
I'm dickering on a dead cocktail.

You mean to say you have THIS in your living room?

Nope.

I'd love to see more nontraditional designs. I've been contemplating some myself. This community puts so much talent and imagination into functionality but we haven't seen all that many truly divergent cabinet concepts yet.

One thing that hasn't been touched on yet in this thread is the idea of mounting the speakers in front vs on a top speaker panel. For me, this was one of the benefits of going w/ a more traditional design, and in playing I can say it definitely made a difference for me in terms of game immersion, b/c the speakers are up there right close to your head. Mounting them in front? Don't know if it'd be the same effect but I would wager not.
That said, I do agree that non-traditional cabs are very cool and would encourage people on building them, it just wasn't for me (for my 1st one -- heh, maybe the 2nd).

I had a spare room. I've got one of these living there now, I'm converting it to have this. If it were up to me, I'd decorate the room in a Baby Pacman theme as fair compensation, but she isn't having any of it.
