    Finished up my Ramvik cabinet just recently. Went the Ikea route as my woodworking skill are poor and I'd be shot if I brought home a full size cabinet :)

    Using Hyperspin as the frontend and running Mame, SNES, Genesis, NES & SMS emulators. Actually got way more on it then I'll ever get round to playing.

    If honest, the Ramvik is a poor playing platform. Because its so low it gets uncomfortable to play for any length of time, because the viewing angle is poor with the LCD you can't sit in comfort at the controls. But it is allow in the house whereas a full cabinet wouldn't be !!

    Very nice, looks great, I used a wireless arcade stick from a PS3 Tekken 6 pack, means I can hold the stick wherever is most comfortable.
    The ideal screen angle is a problem I'll admit, but I mostly play retro games in a vertical orientation, so it doesn't bug me much at all.
