Title: My Tech Related Blog
Post by: battletoads on February 23, 2009, 10:31:22 pm
I'm not exactly a frequent poster here, but I've made my rounds from time to time checking out other member's MAME builds and getting helpful advice.  I'm making a blog for a college e-business class and figured I'd share the link.  I'm going to mainly discuss tech-related news (hence the blog title), write helpful guides, etc. 

 :applaud:

I bought the Project Arcade book a couple years back and took the time to turn a run down Gauntlet II into a MAME machine.  I'll probably post some info and pics about it as well, maybe some guides relating to stuff that I found difficult and now have a better handle on (wiring a control panel, setting up a J-PAC, I-PAC4, ArcadeVGA card, etc).
