Arcade - MAME - Cabinets - JAMMA

Anyone have any advice regarding my design? I'm figuring on playing older titles mostly so I think the 6 action buttons are more than enough to play on. That will allow me to map an A, B, X, Y, L1, L2 for console games. On the top row I can place a Select (player), Start (coin) as well as a hotkey button. That leaves me with an extra button at the top if anyone can think of what I can use it for. Also, I'm planning on one button on either side for a poor man's pinball machine. I figured I'd ask here before mocking it up in case I missed anything.

Hi. Is there a short/ simple manual to use the latests versions of mame? I do not read English that good and it's very difficult for me to read all the documentation.

I've noticed it's really hard to find any affordable cabinets in my are - nothing under 500 at least. Do you all have any tricks/tips on how to locate cheap(er) cabs?
