Why test these folks on games they might know. Fire up your MAME program and test them on the classics from the 80's. Chances are most college students don't have a clue about these great games. Yeah, give em a test on Time Pilot, Zaxxon, or Ms. Pacman and use those results.
I stumbled across mame in '97 and have been re-living those old arcade memories every day since. I have been collecting arcade and computer parts for about a year now and last week I found a galaga cabinet tucked away in somebodys garage for $150.00. This machine housed a family of sqirrels for about 5 years and had about 4 inches of dirt, nuts, and hair in the bottom. I gutted it completely (it's a classic so it was hard) and when done I could not beleive how good the cabinet looked. It is in great shape other than the guts. Last night I hooked the monitor up to my PC and to my amazement it worked wonderfully. You can do all sorts of things with it too, like getting the actual coin slots to register a quarter for the game. I have had a blast with my project and will be done in about a week. I can't wait to play the 1200 or so 80's games I have loaded on the PC dedicated to this Cabinet. If you are interested in doing your own conversion check out these links below.
Yeah, no kidding I remember that and I still have that old IBM pc under the guest bed, never damaged it and played the old floppy drive for all of my friends. Ahh revilee on a floppy drive, can't beat that.

It's business that ruined music, Period. I don't think Britney Spears would even have one album if talent were the model for music today.
