Good Grief....
Just about to purchase a few more games myself...
It appears that if the itch lasts for more then three years... you are
a true addict.. This is my 5th year and no re-hab in sight....
I am thinking that if I have at least 10" in front of a game.. then it
is OK.. Just tighten my belt...

Then one day you come home and some other guy is playing your games, and you
throw them all out of your house.

4 cabs in living room, cocktail in kitchen, 1 in spare room and 1 cab
in my bedroom. Only 625 sq feet to play with and it doesn't stop me.
1 cab in friends shed. 40 boards in my closet. It worked out like a
dream for me. Started last may of 2004, tinkered hours on end every day
on all arcade equipment, quit my job and now repair games and monitors
for a living since jan 2005, new employer picked me up! And every day,
the arcade fever GROWS AND GROWS AND GROWS... All i can think of,
what's next! And the auctions!, are like entering a treasure cove
ready for its gems to be plucked.

Starting a clinic wouldn't be a bad idea now hat I think of it. I will
start one now. Email me to sign up. Quit arcade collecting in hree easy
steps with matt.
1: I will personally confiscate all your arcade games, boards,
monitors, and anything else related (yes, even your prized cali x-treme
T's)
2: You will sign a legal document giving up any/all arcade related
acquisitions in the furture effective immeadiatly. Again I will be the
confiscator. Don't ask what I'm doing with it and I won't tell you =)
3: One free trip to the nudie bar to bring up your spirits after the
truck leaves.
