Cool.

Okay some questions:

- How did you get your arcade cabinet? If there is a shop (or shops)
in the GTA that sell used arcade machines suitable for conversion I
would love to include them on the GTALug MAME page.

- Where did you get parts to fix / refurbish your cabinet? Again
something for the Wiki...

- What sort of CPU are you using to drive the cabinet and how does it
perform on games from say the 1990s (ie: I would love to see advice on
how good (or bad) a machine you can use to drive a MAME system).

Colin.
