Gotta find yourself a cheap ebay touch-screen. My setup is pretty close to yours, but I modded the dartboard and made a DIY lighting unit. The score display just sits on a conveniently located existing shelf below the board. IMHO, the touch-screen really brings it into the "arcade/bar" realm, even without a cabinet. I just wish my drunk buddies would quit throwing darts at it :lol

LCD below the dartboard = maniacal

There is no safe place around a dart board when a wild dart is thrown, and I refuse to not be able to see the display while playing. So far, mine has been pretty resilient to strikes, but that may be because it's an older commercial NEC touchscreen. A newer consumer TS might not have fared so well. Non-TS displays are easy to protect with a sacrificial piece of acrylic in front.
