Well i finaly got the Cabinet home. That thing is heavy .... the first time i seen it .."no i do not need help putting it into my van" =( Was i wrong that thing is a ton. Well back to my problem, looks like the cabinet was a Rampage VR from the burn in. The monitor was striped and was 19" ... in the trash it went.
So that leaves me to replace it. the cabinet looks to hold a 19" OK but the shelf for the monitor is to high to put something bigger in. I would like to put the Happs 27" VGA monitor in it but that would mean i have to lower the shelf. Not a problem ... or should i put a real arcade monitor in it?

Question 1) What are the deminsions for the Happs 27" monitor? It does not say on the site.
2) If i go with a real arcade monitor, What size and how do i connect to VGA card?
3) TV .... is that a bad word in this forum?

I would like to run windows on the machine so that i could surf the net.

***** I do not have a Cabinet name yet but that will be determined by my daughter ... she is 5 years old so who knows what the name will be. I also have a 12 inch LCD touch that i want to work into the Cabinet ... maybe a second PC in the cabinet that will run MP3 jukebox via a LCD touch screen .... what do you think? No sleep for the next little while ... looking forward to commnets.


Bagman. Will have pictures when finished
