I built a very functional mam cabinet that runs off a chipped xbox. I will see if I can take a pic and post.

As far as pinball goes, I know a few people that had them and the only thing I remeber is that they were getting repaired on a very regular basis. Lots of moving parts, electronics and such that can go wrong and parts are built in small quantities which means EXPENSIVE.

I would not get one personally unless I was very confident in my ability to fix it.
