Hi! Gigi from Italy

[Gigi502]

Hello everyone.
I have just joined the forum, Gigi from (too hot) Italy.
I have been into emulation from, basically when I had an Amiga 1200 trying to emulate the C64.
Then over the years, PC and mame came of course, then an arcade cabinet with pc in it.
In the last years some arcade pcb, mostly not working. I plan to have a look on them.
I see that this forum is full of resources, I hope to learn something, repair threads are very interesting.

Here is a picture of my mameCAB that is with me from 2005 i think...

Nice Magnum cab. Adjustable angle for monitor and it can be rotated too (not so easy). Planty of space inside for the huge PCBs. One of my favorites.

Thank you everyone.

Yes, someone call that cab Magnum, even though it's a bit different. The measurements are the same, but it doesn't have the wheel mechanism to rotate the monitor, just a square wood frame. And the angle can not be changed.

Welcome … it’s nice to hear you find the various threads interesting as I post the odd one or two from my 50 years of ‘tinkering’ with all types of Arcadia stuff…

This picture might make you smile (I framed a few relics of our early beginnings)1960s e/m pinball back glass ….. “Gigi”. It’s quite heavy wood and glass and has lived in our stairway for a long time but we see it every time we come down stairs….
