Nope, I still have two of them. Been meaning to put them up somewhere but I have been way too busy with other things in life. They are basically new. I only used them a few weeks.

Devo, I don't know if you are considering a front-end, but I just ran across this.

Thanks dbeeks1, I have already joined the forum, but never received an email to finish my registration. So I cannot post or download anything on the website. All i can do is read the posts! I emailed them a couple times with no reply?

You have to make room for the Playboy! Move your bed out and sleep under the machine?

You guys are pushy! I had to move my computer into another case so I could attach it to the bottom of the pinball machine. When changing out the parts I bumped the heat sink and now computer shuts down after a couple of minutes. I had to order some thermal compound, so I'm now waiting on that.
Here is a small update just to keep you guys off my back!
Still have a lot of cosmetic things to finish.

What games seem to work best on this layout? Do all of the PB2000 games give a good double screen? Did you find a way to save the layout config so it is consistent?

All of the Future Pinball tables are easily configurable to this setup. The VPinmame tables are coming along slowly. They take a little more work to convert to this format. I'll make a youtube video sometime when I'm done to show the various tables.

There are a lot of restrictions with using the pachislo cab. I will have to mount the PC under the cab somehow and add a bunch of fans. I thought I would have this finished by now, but I keep trying to improve on the design.

I'm too scared to do it! It probably isn't that hard to do. It would look a lot better with the computer inside.

well just think of the cab as the puter case
seems like it would work

It should work fine. It's done in MAME cabs and jukeboxes all the time. Set the MB where you want it and trace the monting holes on the wood. Use the stand-offs from the computer case, drill and mount the stand-offs where you traced the holes. That's what I did anyway - no problems yet.
You do have some space restrictions though.
Metz - you're right. Who would know it's a pachislo cabinet? Looks great Devo!
