        Ah... I hadn't looked at the auction in question. I'll agree with you
there; the only cabinets which should be MAME'd are either cabs which you
built yourself, or those relatively generic models all the knock-off
"clone" games showed up in. (Or any JAMMA fighting-game cabinet, as IMO
those games serve no useful purpose anyway. :) ) Converting unique
cabinets like TEMPEST should be a hanging offense.
