I wouldn't say it's dangerous, but it certainly gets interesting trying to
get VAXen and arcade games to co-exist inside the house.
: )
Power issues and space....
It would be interesting to find just how many of us cross over from classic
computers into arcade games.
After all, arcade games are single-purpose computers anyways......

Many thanks for this tagline to a fellow RGVAC'er...
If only there
were some hacks for it. Oh yeah! That's right! It
came with full schematics in a pouch in the door. Just need a
memory map and I'm hacking away... I can use MAME to test the hacks
before burning EPROMs.
Is it a JAMMA compatable board? If so you might want to look into the
Multi-JAMMA adapter that lets you put 6 JAMMA boards in your cabinet. Or
is this one of the games that has specialized controls?
I think getting into Arcade systems is even more dangerous than getting
into Classic Computers. As my wife loves our Neo Geo 4-Slot, so she
doesn't object to new games for it (gotta love cartridge based arcade
systems).
