Bock wrote Youltar still got the unit. He was busy and it's a complex beast to split into parts for shipping.
since there were no further news from you about the cabinet, I thought it was possibly "on hold" in some way :)
I guess shipping such a monster from the US to Europe must be worth a lung and a half or something. the piece by piece thing is a good option.
too bad the scrren was finally broken, but at least it seems like one of the most "replaceable" parts of the cabinet, it would've been worse if it was the joystick what was broken.
what a sweet find and a great luck that the seller came to this forum looking for more info about what he'd found ;)

Sorry for bringing up an ancient thread.
I remembered about this the other day and was wondering if the project ever got anywhere?

Hello,
Unfortunately a terrible thing happened there was a fire in Gary's garage and he lost the screen and cabinet in it. :(
However all the electronic (mother boards cables) was safe in another location at the time. Also I've been having real difficulties obtaining pictures or getting Gary to ship those to me in a timely manner and to this day I haven't got those boards. It is still ongoing a "will send them soon" e-mail thread. I feel rather embarrassed with the whole thing and hope to get my hands on them shortly.

Attached pictures of the hardware I have received.
Unsure yet how the CPU debugger interface card would be connected. It is the only time I've thing such hardware interface for debugging.
