What you use it for is your issue. I'd use it to drown my sorrows and get my friends liquored up. Ha ha ha

I think we discussed building you the ultimate arcade machine for one of those mercedes, no? 

Here's some of the cabinets I built...

You should have seen the hate mail I got for converting some of those cabinets...lol.  It got so bad I had to write an article about it:

This is the one I kept (along with the pac man)

If aaron tells you I had a countertop unit on the bar I was working on, he's lying.

See now Glen I was going to keep my mouth shut about all of that. Don't blame me when Tony and all his friends come knocking on your door looking for a system.

You obviously didn't read my article... I retired and became an evangelist against the 4-player mame cabinet.  That was after the zelda fiasco of '04

Re: How many vortechs?

Some of the best games in the arcade were 4 player though...

Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles
The Simpsons
Xmen

Well, actually those are the only three I know, but they are worth the two extra players alone!!!!!

I spent way too much time and money at the arcade in white oaks mall playing  ninja turtles Simpsons and I think wrestling might've been 4 players too.
