Hey really good work here, love the concept, realy does work, have your thought about using a synthetic jelly to mount a keyboard into the table below the screen?
ive seen people do that with computer desks. i also thought up the idea of putting a half a keyboard cubed peice of material (for a mouse) into the table beside the keyboard, with a cup holder above it

heres my quickly sketched prototype lol:

It could, & it did. I'm moving back to Chicago & trying to raise some cash, so it could make you the envy of YOUR friends for a price...

haha. i just read this, and even though its old, i love it. great work, really shows what somebody can accomplish once they get off d2 and do something they want to do.
im making one, eventually... a few years from now... a xbox/ps2 simulator, though. since by the time i make it, that'll be the old ns4

Anybody live in Northern California? (Near San Francisco?) I just joined the Coast Guard & moved out here. If you wanna come check out my arcade machine (it's coming tomorrow), then email me. claytonhorning AT yahoo.com

It crapped out today. BOOT FAILURE. That's what I get for using a shitty computer to do this. Oh well, it was fun while it lasted.

It's on eBay AGAIN! If you live in Northern California, you should bid on it.
