I envy you for your storage/display space.  I live in a 900
square foot house.  I have an M100-A (which I've owned since
my junior year in high school) in the living room, and an
AMI "A" (and a baby grand piano) in the "music room".  I
currently have one, eventually two. pinball machines in
my "office" room.  What with a Victrola, Edison Diamond Disc
Phonograph and several external-horn phonographs, there's
barely room for the furniture.  My "eternally powered up"
AMI G-200 is in the workshop and an AMI JAL/JAN/whatever (with
the acid-flashback swirly disks - also high school vintage)
in the garage (because I can't even give it away) along with
a Seeburg 148 hideaway waiting for resurrection.  What
I'd give for a nice big barn or something!  Unfortunately,
where I live it's easier to put in a 200 house development
than an over-200 square foot storage shed.

My wife, when she was my wife, never complained about
the jukeboxes, as long as only the 78 machines were in
the house - heck, that's all there's room for!  (In
those days, the pinball machines were at friends' houses.)
