It's been a long time since I updated this site because I've just had too much going on.  I won a Space Invaders PCB set from e-bay that should be here later this week.  I've moved the cabinet inside the house, cleaned it some more and hope to have it up and running in a few days.  The other PCB set that I had fixed is not really fixed.  It might have gotten screwed up in the mail so I'll wait for the new set to be sure it works, then send the first set back to be fixed again if it turns out to be bad still.

I'm doing some wire wrap circuits for automagically turning the monitor on when arcade OS sets the scan rate to a safe level and to be a joystick 4/8 way converter.

My shuffle bowler is up for sale on e-bay, as will be a dozen other items which have been sitting around my house collecting dust.  On June 17'th I'll be attending an auction in Lakewood, GA where I hope to pick up a machine or two which I'll not mention right now.  I've also been bidding on PCB's because there's several games which I want. I'm also tracking down a lead on some PCB's that may or may not be available from an area distributor.
