This is my MAME Arcade Cabinet that is currently a work in progress. I have about 7 hours into the build from the cabinet to the software. Next plans are to hide the keyboard with a removable or sliding panel. I’ve spent countless hours playing this machine with no problems and I’m very happy with it. This is my first build. Cabinet – Xtension Tower Arcade Cabinet Computer – Dell Inspiron E1505 Laptop (XP) Screen – Acer AL2216W (22″) Sound – Philips MMS171-PC 2.1 Multimedia Speaker System Controls – X-Arcade Tankstick + Trackball GUI – MAMEUI32 Other – Logitech G15 Keyboard, Sharp SPC106 Blue Lit Clock I’ve always wanted a Home Network Server too but wanted a MAME Arcade Cabinet even more. One bad thing about a HNS is where will you store the hardware? How about make a dual purpose MAME Arcade Cabinet? Perfect! So that will be my next project. The parts coming out of my custom built pcs that are being updated with new hardware will be used to rebuild this MAME Arcade Cabinet / Home Network Server. Here is a list of some of that out-dated hardware going into the build. EVGA 790i Motherboard Super Talent SDRAM DDR3 1800 Intel Core 2 Duo E8400 3.0ghz 65W Dual-Core Processor EVGA 8600 GTS Video Card – and more to come Any questions? Just ask.
