I'm going to go out on a limb here and say that Riot probably wants to be able to play the machine himself, too. :)

I would love to use it. I'm not sure the school budget would allow it, but maybe I'll pursue it and ask around.

What about the "Riot" budget? Dude just put it in your house. Not that hard.

I have no roooooooooooom. Meg wants to go on vacations and I don't and she would get mad if I bought expensive stuff (even though my camera was almost as much as this machine). I have a feeling shipping would be basically as much as the machine itself. Plus I don't know how to fix hardware if something breaks =(

I will fix the hardware. Shipping will probably be $500 at the very most.

You have a guest bedroom with nothing in it except my bed.

If your school still needs a machine there's a cheap machine that has no reserve up on ebay:

It will probably go for around $1,500. Local pickup only but it's in Owensboro, KY.

I like how that spammer with links to fishy tea-selling websites used his one post to laugh at a silly stock photo I posted!

Yeah that's pretty funny.

The DDR machine is at $800 with about 60 hours left to go! Anyone want to do an over / under on how much this will go for? I'll set the line at $1,450.

SN2 in an upgraded old era (probably Japanese) cabinet for $1865 OBO. Looks to be in OK shape though not a lot of detailed pictures. Gotta ship it from Cali, though.
A normality test:

If you are no longer connected to the internet, you need to apply more wax to your modem: it'll make it go faster.
If you find this funny, you're a nerd.
If neither of the above apply, you are normal. Congratulations.
