[GLLUG] Re: Penguicon Gaming Machines for Computer Room

[Karl Schuttler]

Personally, I think that this standard is above what is really needed
for gaming. Perhaps to play the latest games, which would be cool, but
also very costly. There are a lot of games that may not be cutting
edge any more but nonetheless are very fun; I think they almost trump
the newer games of today. I think people would be pleased if the
gaming room just had a computer with SNES roms on it...everybody likes
mario.

Then again, it isn't really multiplayer.
