Hi

I've managed to get hold of a couple of Philips CM88** (forget exactly
which one) monitors which I'm planning to use inside the mini cabinet
I'm building.

My question is: Has anybody had any problems rotating them? Do they work
happily on their sides?

After dreaming of getting all my old favourite classic games (Joust,
Defender, etc) for a while, I've realised I'd have to spend an awful lot
of money, so instead I'm planning to a JAMMA harness as well as a MAME
PC into the cabinet. Anyone tried this before? Anything I ought to be
aware of?

Cheers,
Nige.

I used to have one. worked fine on its side - then one day I plugged a
playstation into it and it blew up (the monitor not the playstation
more's the pity).
