WTB: Dedicated Major Havoc (A Story)

Ever since I stumbled on Jess's pages and fell in love with Vector games
again, I've wanted a dedicated Major Havoc. No, I never played one way back
when, but it's such a cool cabinet -- a small, looks like it might be a nice
small addition to my collection.

A few weeks ago, I saw one for sale. $1,500.00 Oh well, thinks I. That's
too rich for my blood. Unless I win like $50,000 in the lotery . . .

Last week I went down to ISPCON in Baltimore. (Great time if you are an
ISP). To get people down on the vendor floor, they give away a Hummer. You
have to get your card stamped by like 25 vendors who sponsor the thing, they
put the cards in a bin and draw one out.

I came home with a Hummer.

For those who don't know, a Hummer is a really big Jeep. I mean really big.
I mean, like huge. It weighs 6,000 lbs, can tow another 10,000, has a 6.5l
turbo diesel. And has no usable space that I can figure out. It's a 4
seater, with the engine/transmission between the seats. It has a small bed
out back, that you couldn't even lay down a full-size arcade cab in.

On the other hand, they list for $74,000.

Anyone want to buy a Hummer ?

Anyone know of a dedicated Major Havoc for sale in the New York area ?
:-)
