Well, this sure helps me out a LOT! Friend at work has a Dragon's Lair cabinet he doesn't want and is selling it for $100!!! He said it worked great until about a year ago (needs center piece that the laserdisk sits on). Unfortunately, we need to wait until spring to move it.
Anyway, since this whole cabinet with monitor (he said monitor has great picture and colors) is going to cost quite a bit less than the monitor I was going to get for my "home-built" cabinet, I can spend some money on a better computer (K6-2 450?). Also, the composite input the Dragon's Lair monitor has will eliminate any "VGA-RGB" conversion issues.
I plan on keeping Dragon's Lair functional, and the cabinet as original as possible (want to make a control panel that will "sit" over top of the original so it won't be damaged).
Anyway, I'm really beside myself right now, because I can't believe I found a good cabinet for this price. I'm hoping I can get fix the laserdisk player pretty easily, if not....I'm not real sure what I'll do.
Thanks,
Dennis
