Ully ;D, wheels can help, you know :D.

That's exactly the same setup than F355 petieken, and I'm happy with that "little" 3 screens cab :wink:.

With those 3 screens added together, you have about a 45 inch screen :o :D. That's not so little anymore, that's a proper Panavision view ;D ;)

My best catch this year is my first dedicated machine: Atari Badlands

I am proud of it and, even if (actually) not working, it's one of my best buy ever.

My greatest find of 2009 was my Centipede (thanks to Level42) and my Chase HQ (Free).

This baby. Cost me about €30. Wasn't working, but I have it booting now. Still needs work but it's on the right path.

On eBay. It somehow slipped through the cracks. I was surprised myself when I got it.

Those card racks are a pain in the!$* to work on though.

Belgium. Don't think it was wrongly listed but it was badly spelled.
