Guys,
Aside from the obvious sacrilege in not using a bonafide arcade monitor do you guys see any reason why this would not work? I have a 19 inch flat screen NEC monitor and am wondering if I can decase it and mount it on the bracket for my 30 year old burned out Wells Gardner. Any advice, cautionary tales or other things I should consider please make them known.
I might be losing my job here soon and I can't afford the quid to buy a new one. I'll eventually replace it but since it's a tube monitor I didn't think I would run into the crappyish look of an LCD for the classics. If it isn't spot on I can live with it for now but again has anyone done this and are there things for me to consider. I already dove into the project and began decasing the monitor and taking off the old monitor from the metal brackets but that's as far as I am.
It would also be good to know how to make the monitor always stay on so it comes on and off with the cabinet since I won't be able to access the on and off switch. Is this typically doable in the menu of monitors?
Thanks in advance dudes!
Thoughts?
