My MAME Cabinet is finished!

[Yoeddy]

So I think I found another deal of the century! On Craigslist, I found a guy that bought a MAME Ultimate II cabinet complete with a Wells Gardner 27" arcade monitor 4 player control deck completely set up with an I-pac, glowing trackball, and a PC. If you have searched these out on the internet, new they go for over 3 large. He was asking $800 bucks for it.

I get to his house, and he couldn't even demo it for me because he something had happened to the MAMEWAH software and he was experiencing OS issues. I asked him if he would take $500 bucks for it all things considered...he did!!!

We get the beast home. I threw in an Intel C2D PC and reconfigured MAME with the Maximus Arcade FE with Vista x64. Everything worked perfect!!! Put a coat of jet black semi-gloss on the lower half of the cabinet, ordered some sideart and a marquee, put in a flourescent light for the marquee, added some speaker covers, and presto, below I now have something that I have wanted my entire life...and super cheap too!

I'll put a video up soon!

I'll post up a video of my cab in action once I get DeLuSioNaL29's intro video installed. The blue lightening background looks great with the sideart and marquee that I installed.
