    Quoted from GSones:

    I'd say upside down is the best term. I know that I'll never get my money back on my HEP Playboy restore but I don't care. I had the game restored so that I could travel back to 1978 for a few minutes and enjoy one of the games I used to play back then, just like it used to look (actually a little better, thanks Chris). I'll be my son's problem to try and find a buyer after I'm gone (unless Hugh Hefner's still around).

    I think people think to stop being so hung up on all this... just take how much money you lose on this whole hobby (buying the machine, all the tools, all the restoration, etc. etc,), add to that the profits you make selling machines (if any), and then divide all this by the time you spend on it.
    My guess is it's waaaaay cheaper than any other hobbies the average man spends their money on.
