I bought mine refurbed with reconditioned monitor , reflowed PCB, new power supply etc. I did that because asteroids is a vector monitor game. You would be better getting a MAME cabinet if you aren't looking at playing vector games.Bob wrote:I'd like to pick up a genuine old cabinet.. but I'm guessing a lot of them aren't going to be in great nick anymore.
