If you are seeing a flicker when playing something like Soul Calibur at 15khz RGB, then its probably something to do with your monitor (may need adjusting).

Now I need to figure a way to switch between a dreamcast and a pc running Mame.

The pc will probably go out using an ATI card running 15khz. (here I come ultimarc)

the Dreamcast needs to be hooked up....Here's my question.

Can I hack a scart cable to output rgb at 15khz...
If yes
what would be the best way for me to switch back and forth from a pc to a dreamcast  for the Cab.

and Last. whats the best controller to hack for a control panel.

I'm going to start on the Cab this weekend!!!!!

Well to switch between my PS2 and DC pad I just used an SPDT switch and just used the switch to switch the grounds. Just one flip and I could use DC or just flip it again and I could use the PS2. This eliminated the purpose of trying to use a printer cable which I used once and I didn't really like it. Here's a link to the switch:
