Curiosity for historical, could you tell what that burn in vertical display might have been?

Oh man! How did a Namco monitor get in a Neo Geo Cab? Now that is strange!

Who cares, display still looks great, a holdover until you tackle that bigger display.

i can't believe you are swapping displays before you need to. Such a huge amount of work!

Glad you got your problem fixed with the stretching. I had a similar problem, but a different type of monitor. I had a broken dial.

I've had this arcade sitting there- toying with me. My intention was to swap out the monitor/guts for an updated mame machine but i just don't have the heart to do it!

Probably that Giant HD across from the MVS, Big Kid needs bigger toy in the little Arcade that could. :D
