[Ed] had a netbook he no extended required and determined to make it right into a mini MAME cabinet for several of his loved ones members. MAME cabinets are quite plentiful,

Microsoft Office 2010 Key, we needed to share it.
He removed the monitor from an EeePC 901 as a way to get some precise measurements, then went about crafting a mini cabinet from MDF. The entire thing was wrapped in sticky label paper adorned with old-school Galaga graphics,

He utilized an iPac 2 controller board to wire up all of the buttons and joystick to the netbook, opting to solder the controller’s wires directly to the USB header on the eeePC’s motherboard. A power switch was added up on top for easy operation, and the cabinet was sealed shut, though the back does open easily in the event that maintenance is required. The system is managed using the Maximus Arcade front end for MAME,
Windows 7 Home Basic Key, which [Ed] claims is incredibly easy.
