Relatively new user.

While yes there are cheaper ways of doing this. This is my first so I picked up a New Astro city cab with 29" dual res 15~24K monitor, control panel, Xmen:children of the atom, bunch of random spare wires, and a free J-Pac(which I had to return for a working one) for 400bucks.

Yes mounting the PC components would be better on wood to keep everything more open and such but this case fits right in the cab. Went with a 7800GTX for video with soft15k. Using the original speakers and its great.

Didnt take that many pictures as Im not really going to change anything too much on it. Just have to get my overlay done.

Wont be my only one I have a feeling. Its addicting. Love these forums and group. Hope to see some of ya when California Extreme Meet & Greet comes here(as its about 10min away from me).

Now I just need some yen to use the coin drop, Oh and a bench to sit at it.

You can hammer the coinmech with something small and skinny to make it use quarters.

Im sure a local metal shop would be able to break-press round bits of steel. Would be a shame to modify the coin mech...
