May 14 2009 Meeting - MAME and Arduino

[VideoMan]

This Thursdays meeting with be run by Chameleous. Heather and VideoMan
are taking a break tonight to do some welding.

We will be playing with MAME, and doing some hacking with the Arduino
on Thursday night.

For those who don't know, MAME is a multiple arcade emulation
environment for older video games, you know the ones that that you had
to stick a cartridge into the slot to play!

The Arduino boards are a development kit for doing prototyping, and
other fun stuff. They can be used in just about anything, from setting
up twitter feeds, to hacking IR codes. If you have an Arduino please
bring it, and share your experiences!
