--> The mention of SeanShea's mame party got me juiced about my table at home that I just finished.

I basically took an Ikea table (ramvik I think) and modified it so it could fit a pc inside along with an lcd screen. Then I just built the controllers and put it on with some brackets. It's great because it plays like an arcade but it isn't an obnoxious thing to have in a house.

Suhweetness. Always wanted to do something like this too. Somehow, the prospect of having a 50 foot projection of Ms. Pacman on the wall always beats it out.
