          OMG! That's so cool! I'm not a major tech head either, but some serious effort was put into this. I love the carpeting, the space posters and the Space Invaders painting on the wall. (one of my all-time fave video games!)

                ...yeah, I made a serious mistake when I wasn't born with or didn't nurture the drive to be a computer whiz for AOL or whatever it is he does for a living to afford this.

                        I saw the article on him in The Washington Post a few weeks ago.

                        It was very cool and talked a little bit about The King of Kong documentary.

                        Apparently, he's pretty good about fixing his own machines so his out of pocket costs aren't quite as much as it would be if he had to outsource the labor. Really cool though.

                        I honestly didn't know there are still quite a few hardcore old time gamers out there.

                        I tried playing Centipede the other day for the first time in I don't know how many years. Also tried Missle Command. Those games are still really difficult to this day.

                        If you want to drive a kid crazy, throw them in front of one of these old school machines and see how they do. They will go absolutely beserk when they see that their entire game is over in a matter of minutes.
