So I think I found another deal of the century!  On Craigslist, I found a guy that bought a MAME Ultimate II cabinet complete with a Wells Gardner 27" arcade monitor 4 player control deck completely set up with an I-pac, glowing trackball, and a PC.  If you have searched these out on the internet, new they go for over 3 large.  He was asking $800 bucks for it. 

I get to his house, and he couldn't even demo it for me because he something had happened to the MAMEWAH software and he was experiencing OS issues.  I asked him if he would take $500 bucks for it all things considered...he did!!!

We get the beast home.  I threw in an Intel C2D PC and reconfigured MAME with the Maximus Arcade FE with Vista x64.  Everything worked perfect!!!  Put a coat of jet black semi-gloss on the lower half of the cabinet, ordered some sideart and a marquee, put in a flourescent light for the marquee, added some speaker covers, and presto, below I now have something that I have wanted my entire life...and super cheap too!

Below is the latest version of my MAME cabinet!  Enjoy!

Thanks for commenting on the comments, as I has missed your video the first time around, and K+ for the video.  applause
It looks like it's well built and a blast to play.  Tempest Star Wars  I like the emblems that you put on the sides.
Just try not to spill your Frosty Beer into the cabinet when you're playing!  bust gut laughing bust gut laughing bust gut laughing
