Yes I would love to get an old arcade machine like that for home, just for the heck of it and old times. Something like maybe space invaders or donkey kong. Those things I can still hear the unique music and sounds they made, in my head. Lol about the motorcycle game, I would need to move to a bigger place for that. chrissy

Their are guys and gals all over the world buying them from arcades that close down, redesigning the interior to occomodate a mac or pc running the emulator of choice (usuallly some flavour of Mame), and voila, multipurpose arcade chaos in your lounge. Some people take this stuff pretty far, I saw an awesome Apple cab where the guy had done a really swanky job of the interior, plus imbeded a little keyboard into the exterior along with power and standby buttons and such. Fun fstuff! So, Chrissy, if you have room at home for one of those motorcycles... lol Scott On 9/10/09, Thomas Ward <[email protected]> wrote: > Hi, > You go girl.
