I realize there are a lot of things I need to learn when it comes to the behind-the-scenes of arcade games. Or at least there are lots of things I want to learn.
I feel more comfortable around pins. Maybe it's the monitor that freaks me out. All this talk of discharging, flybacks and cap kits..
Almost by accident, I found Randy Fromm's Arcade School, which seems to be a great resource. However, buying the whole DVD set is a bit pricy. I may well order it in a few months, but it would be great to get some pointers first.
Does anyone have any experience with his videos, and are there similar, less costly tutorials around?

Hey,
I have his DVD set. It helped me big time, as I do not have an electronics background.
I *think* you can watch all those videos online by subscribing for a year for $60:

Ah, thanks for letting me know. I see that some are even available on YouTube, can't believe I missed that.
The dollar has risen by about 50% relative to our currency, so maybe I'll wait a bit before ordering. But I definitely need this.
