As far as what I want, would be nice to have usb slots, and be able to be upgraded with a custom theme, and songs.  Pad condition is my biggest concern, I'm not looking to spend that much cash for something Ill have to fix as soon as I get it. I know a few of the people on this forum know how to do a lot of what Ill need to do to the machine when I get it. That was another reason I wasn't trying to spend much more then $9,000, because it would be nice to have extra to pay someone to help me set it all up, and for spare parts just in case. If I can pick up a machine for much cheaper then that and just upgrade it, then that would work as well, but I know that I would need help with that. I know it would be out of the way for most of you (since I live in Puyallup) but I would most likely keep the machine up for pretty much public use to everyone. As long as people wouldn't be damaging the machine, more then just wear and tear.

The ITG cabinet at Narrows isn't actually a dedicab - it's been upgraded from a much older DDR cabinet. If this doesn't bother you, I think that upgrade cabs are a lot easier to find than dedicabs.
