Probably will not suit your taste but with a simple design like the vigolox, you can get started in your full sized arcade cabinet in no time. :D

Well. Actually, my design is not far off from this one. But it will have a CRT 32" display. The bottom will be hollow (just an aluminum panel down) and at about 2/3 of way down it will cut and go the other way (backwards) because the whole thing is mostly middle towards back heavy (because of CRT).

But, you've gave me a great idea and beacuse of your project I've decided the PC will go underneath the buttons. That way I'll get two things. Only require three cables (power, audio and VGA out to the SCART of the CRT). And I can always just take it out and bring to someones house and connect it to let's say a modern TV. Plus I can easily just have a Hyperspin version that uses the same resources (media and roms) but is aimed towards 1920x1080 resolutin (unlike my primary 320x240).
