Colin, I'm still subscribed and get notification. TxLC is good for me. There is also a small BBQ place on 183 @ Ohlen called Mann's. Family owned and really good ...my fave. We often take foreign dignitaries (read out-of-towners) there for lunch and it always gets rave reviews. Wherever...
I'm up for the 29th. I'll need directions to Colin's place. My daughter has been there for a movie night with my brother a couple years back, but I've not been there.
That post was from 05 January 2006. I might have seen it back then, but I've slept since then. ;)
Why do you ask about a post nearly a year old? Just curious.
Greg, I just heard out about this through the grapevine today. (closest thing to a dancing raisin I could find). You shoulda linked or posted this on one of the other already established Austin HTF threads. I'll be there. And I'll bring my cue. I haven't been able to play on my table for...
[SIZE=2]I'm interested. But I also have a great need for a new receiver, and since I owe Uncle Sam a payment here in a couple weeks, I'll have yet another draw on available funds. :angry:

Jonathan and Jenn, Thanks for hosting the meet Saturday. I was glad to get a chance to compare my AE700 with the AE900. The 900 looks good, but the difference is not enough to get me to cough up the ~$500 upgrade cost.
Greg, We've never met, but it appears you were with the Austin HTF group...
The consensus filter of choice for the AE700 in the forums is the 77mm KR-6 81EF Color Conversion Glass Filter. The AE900 is physically almost identical to the AE700, so the same filter (size and type) may be offer similar results.
I'd be up for a meet also! And like Leroy, I will be out of pocket for several weeks.
Chad,
Sadly, the arcade is on the back burner for a little while. :frowning: I am helping my dad with some remodeling.
I will post a few pix of the arcade in its semi-complete state when I get a chance.
I saw Chad's Starcade at the beginning of January, At that time, he wasn't as far along (nothing electrical functioning), but having seen it in person, I can testify...
This Starcade is amazing COOL!
Chad's differs from the other 9 arcades built in many ways.
Structural:
