The first VB.Net
based MAME Frontend for Windows, I wrote
this to learn VS.Net and WINForms.
This was my first cabinet, it was designed and built from scratch
in 2001. It's currently in my shop as it has been gutted for yet another
conversion.
This is a conversion cabinet, it had Zaxxon installed at the time
I bought it. This cabinet lived in my office at Microsoft until the computer failed. It's
in my shop at the moment awaiting repair.
Another conversion cabinet, again a rescued cabinet which had been
gutted. This cabinet lives in my home office.
I helped Alan with the work on this conversion cabinet. It lives
in Alan's office at Microsoft.
Another cabinet I helped Alan with, this one lives in Alan's
entertainment room.
