    Currently running the MAME 0.191 for the MAME stuff, using Gameex as my front-end. Busy collecting the CHD files, but managed to find all the ROMs for all the games I used to play as kid. Problem now is to cut the almost 18,000 games down to less than 500. Some of the stuff I will never play...

    Hi All, I am busy to rebuild an old gaming machine. Got a cabinet for cheap on OLX, but the guy for some reason decided to paint it this horrible green and pink. The cabinet is mainly constructed with chipboard (sides) with MDF and wood as support. It is very sturdy. Originally the chipboard...

    Controlling internet use - bandwidth control

    OK, just a little feedback, perhaps it helps some-one else. I first tried Ubuntu with Squid and a number of other packages. Using various how-to's, google and youtube I was able to get the gateway up, manage a firewall, but that was that. It was a complex and frustrating 2 days. In terms of...

    Mercantile Bank - Home loan

    Yes. I also have a home loan from them. At the time they were the only bank that were willing to provide me with a bond. Effectively work for myself and other banks just look at one's salary and not the whole package (I have 4 house bonds and on paper my finance looks bad ...) The service I...

    Mercantile Bank - Home loan

    I am with them and they are not too bad. As mentioned, Bank is a Bank. I found them to be quite helpful and willing to assist, although their online banking feels cumbersome to me, so I still use a different bank for daily use.
