Greetings from Toronto

Howdy all. Names Wil. Been a fan of John's work for the last year. I've recently taken up the hobby of...*gasp*...MAME.

I know, I know...your thinking another cab-hacker, some bloke up North that ruins priceless arcade cabs so he could slap in a computer and some tacky marquee with a mish mash of arcade icons;

Well, no worries! With the exception of spray painting a control panel, I've preserved the 'structural integrity' of my cabinets.

Currently got three cabs. (WrestleFest, Generic RomStar cabinet (Currently with a Moon Cresta marquee) and my proud little center piece; Asteroids Cocktail Cabinet.

All three have been cleaned up, I-Pac'ed and dolled 'em up with CRT tube monitors and speaker/amp hacks.

I'm currently on the hunt for a Golden Tee 2K (original cab) Should have it this Friday barring any problems.

I'm sporting a tiny game room in an apartment den. I figure I can squeeze in a few more cabs before my wife kills me. ;)

Frankly with our currently lodgings, MAME really is the best way to enjoy a variety of games and save space. Long term goals is at least two more. A driver game (Outrun perhaps) and a trackball cab.

So hello all. Hope you don't mind my picking your brains for Arcade savy, and to ya purists, fear not; No cabinets were mutilated during the production of this Canuck's 'Bar'Cade.

'Wil
