I am sedentary by nature, enjoying passive entertainment, eating when the mood takes me, and playing with my food.
I try to avoid conflict, but when I'm angered, I can be a devil - if you force me to fight, I will crush you. With apples!
What Video Game Character Are You?

| HARDWARE |
- CONTROL PANEL
-
Ultimarc.com
- I-PAC2 USB Keyboard Encoder
- Opti-PAC USB Optical Encoder
- T-Stick Plus Joystick with Ball Top handle
- 2 ¼" Trac Ball
-
Good documentation, good reviews and easy to use software to program to do the key mappings.
I decided to use the T-Stick's because I was going for a certain look - blue ball-top. Sasquatch at
ArcadeParadise said the Wico's were hard to come by, so I went with these instead. No complaints so far.

- Vortex Spinner
- Engraved Aluminum MAME Knob

Good reviews, solid construction. USB or serial interface available. Oh, and you can buy a knob
with the MAME logo engraved on it!

- Assorted Pushbuttons with Horizontal Microswitch
- Marquee Retainer
- Speaker Grills

I needed purple pushbuttons... Not many places stock that color. Happ does. If I didn't need that color,
I probably would have gotten all my buttons from Andy at UltiMarc. Happ should take a lesson in customer
service from Andy... Happ screwed up the order and it took a while to finally get all my stuff.
- COMPUTER
-
- Dell Precision Workstation 410
- Dual PIII's @ 800mhz
- 512 MB RAM
- Dual 10,000 rpm 9 GB SCSI Drives
- ATI Radeon 7500 - 64 MB AGP with TV Out
- Sound Blaster Live! Sound Card
- Wireless Keyboard
-
Man this thing ways a ton! I should stop complaining though... My neighbor's company was throwing it away, so I asked
him to give it to me. Believe it or not, Mortal Kombat still runs slooooow. Everything else runs great.
- MONITOR
-
- Dell 21" P1130 CRT Monitor
-
Refurbished. My brother-in-law found a good deal for this online and I got it as a birthday present. Sweet!
- SPEAKERS
-
- Altec-Lansing ACS90 with Sub-Woofer.
-
These speakers are like 10 years old and they still pound! The sub-woofer has it's own amp. The wife is constantly telling
me to turn it down. Nuf said.
