Wizards of Wor arcade cabinet for free - should I do it?

I've always wanted to do a MAME cabinet. What do you think? Can I do something with this. Should I jump on it? All it requires is about an hour drive to pick it up.
How much work would have to be done (more buttons, etc)?

I'm not sure I'd bother, though I suppose I'd have to take a look at the cabinet. I doubt I'd bother for anything short of a Candy Cab, though, so it depends on your desire for a cab and what you're willing to pay for it (in this case, not much).

If it was near me and I had room I would. Even if I changed my mind it didn't cost anything and you can give it away again.

As Hobie mentioned, I think this really just boils down to whether or not you can comfortably accommodate it.

if you got room for it, why not? and if you get tired of it you could always sell it for 100% profit!

It depends on if you have room for it, doesn't look very big. I love arcades so I would get it! I had to get rid of a bunch of stuff to fit mine in my room, but its worth it.
