Lob,

Strangely enough, that doesn't sound like a bad idea. Quick and easy
one-pot meals that let you have some form of nutrition then allow you to get
back to MAME?? I don't think that sound so insane.

Lob,

Another one that doesn't sound so insane. I wish I knew how to draw /
sketch properly. I'd be willing to dream something up and put it on paper.
There's just one think I can think of: The cabinet would hsve to be a little
shorter than usual and perhaps a bit wider. I'm afraid that the weight of
the microwave oven being high up off the floor would make the cabinet
top-heavy and prone to tip-over.

In all sincerity, I truly like the idea the idea of dumping the coin
door and putting in a fridge. Put the cab's CPU on a shelf above the fridge.

Regards,
Bill N.

You lose your job bartending because you keep whizzing beers down the
bar at anyone who approaches.

You believe that if you shoot a light out while you are in the elevator
that the entire building will lose its lighting even though the
elevators still work.

You blow bubbles at anyone who irritates you and then head butt them
when one sticks.

You believe that the earth is made up of 4 different colors of dirt and
teeming with killer inflatable monsters.

You make your burgers by stepping on all of the ingredients.

Your name is lob

Perfectly do-able though, the only issue that might crop up is if your
setup uses original graphics modes as some projectors can be rather
finnicky. My setup using xmame on linux sticks to 1024x768 and uses
the graphics card hardware to rescale, I'd imagine you can do
something similar on windows.

Actually I though Pileomonkeycrap's reply was in keeping with the
thread, after all Lob plainly plays too much mame, hence his marathon
of posts! Mind you I'd say about 90% of them raise at least a chortle
from me so I'd disagree with the "unfunny thread" bit.

... and you've defeated a succession of end-of-level bosses with your
remark-gun, loaded with ammo starting with like-your-sister, then
talk-too-much, moving on to chubby, powering up with saggy and moving
in for the kill with the newer-model beam.

You buy a Honda Civic Type-R but then bitch and moan to the dealer
about the "force orb" not functioning.
