Wow... 4 acres... Never been to NE.PA. All I know is Plymouth Mtg and Philly in PA. Doesn't seem so far but obviously is.

Anyhoo, turning the ship around~ So how's your progress on the MAME cabinet? :)
The actual cabinet isn't started yet and will probably wait until next weekend. I have been planning and working on the technical stuff. I received the VGA to S-video adapter in the mail yesterday and tried it out today... it works well enough to make me want to use the 27" TV instead of the 21" monitor. Now I need to settle in on a frontend.

Got my BYOAC confirmation, so I can go bug those folks soon :)

Not sure how easy it is to tell in this shit pic, but this morning I drew the cabinet on the plywood. This was a pain as I had to modify plans, but I think everything should match up to my TV and other parts. This is getting exciting!
