My First Candy, Fuck Yeah! No I gotta clean it and replace the sticks, at least the 1p.

Yippie!

Finally got a proper case for my PC, a cute little gaming cube, Silverstone Sugo SG01-F.

...and a crapload of fans... I love these Noctua fans!

So I can take all the crap from my ugly old scavenged box and move them over into the smaller case.

My 9600GT fits inside with lots of room to spare. But I wish I had a modular power supply.
Also, it looks like some companies have recently released low-power versions of 9600GT which are smaller and pretty cheap. Very interesting...

And I finally cleaned up my desk to make room (basically just moved the mess elsewhere). But I really don't want to put this case on the floor since the intake fans are in risky places...

I am actually still waiting for a fan controller which will eventually occupy the other 5.25" bay.

picked this up at the sacramento superauction today. They had slim pickin's, kinda disappointing show overall.

Glad to score this though, It's in real nice shape too:

Ah, yes...one of those classic Williams produced Pinball 2000 games. Only three different pinballs were made utilizing the Pinball 2000 setup.

And there is the rare prototype Pinball 2000 Playboy pinball game that was a one-off.

At the 1999 California Extreme show, there were two prototype Star Wars Episode 1 pinball tables to try out. Plus, if you read the fine print on the playing field, both were for sale at $4,400 USD directly from Williams themselves. I got to try it out before it was released domestically in arcades worldwide. It's too bad that Williams shut down their entire pinball division to concentrate on making the real dough with the gambling machines -- huge profit margins on those type of machines. Williams' gotta keep their shareholders happy. ^_~

I wonder what new pinball games are coming out this year from Stern?

It's a weird looking lineup this year, Terminator, 24, NBA (wtf?), Big buck Hunter (even more wtf?). I'm not sure if they have any other tables planned, I was kinda hoping they'd do Star Trek that doesn't seem to be happening.

That would be the third Terminator pinball game to come out after Williams' first two: Terminator 2 and Terminator 3. Make you wonder how good will the gameplay for this new Terminator Salvation pinball table?

An NBA and Big Buck Hunter themed pinball games from Stern? What the fuck is Stern smoking? Lol...Stern needs to wake up and get some better IPs to develope pinball games for IMO. ^_~

last years cax was the first time I had played a pinball2000 game. I guess diehard pin-heads might not dig it, but I thought it was really cool. I had always planned to get terminator 2 as my first pin, love that one - but couldn't pass this up. Maybe next year for T2...

sven666 · Post by **sven666** » Tue May 05, 2009 7:37 pm

revenge from mars is pretty cool, used to have it in my old arcade.

make sure to take care of the chassi card and the monitor tho, its nigh impossible to replace...

a new terminator pin is welcome anyways, that movie has nice swag potential i think.

I did not just buy this, I paid for it months ago from a group order Bibliophile hosted on neo-geo.com. It finally came from being shipped from GA to MA 6 days ago, and I love it. It originally had a mahjong CP but that had to go. The Gunbird 2 PCB was bought separately as well.

This is my 1st candy cab I have ever played on or seen and I love it!

Anyway, here it is, sorry for the crappy pics:

It's a 1999 Ducati monster 750, it was my first bike, which I sold to my father to help pay for a 900ss after that, as he had been out of riding for quite a few years, he still lets me take it out for a spin every now and again now that I'm bikeless, he's done a bunch of ridiculous things to the old girl. That was my parents garage before I got it move the final leg of the journey to my apartment.

'ppreciate it, but man, that just sounds creepy.

Nothing like a man buying another man doujinshi for his birthday.

Ikaruga doujinshi? I DEMAND SCANS!

Also, I gots me a chair.

Ed Oscuro · Post by **Ed Oscuro** » Sun May 17, 2009 5:00 pm

Cool chair. Mesh seat or psuedo-leather? Or just leather?

I have one that's kinda like an Aeron. Kinda.

Not if it's got bacon in it.

<Megalixir> Today, I had a very intense sexual dream that made me come and left me panting when I woke up. It was the best orgasm I'd ever had. The trouble was, it wasn't about a hot girl, or anything sexy. It was about bacon. FML

Stormwatch · Post by **Stormwatch** » Mon May 18, 2009 12:33 am

Mesh. Dad has a pseudo-leather chair, very comfy but too hot, you sit on it for a while and your back gets soaked with sweat. And they had one of those "Aeron-like" at the store, but it cost twice as much as the one I got.
