I put a rocker switch on the underside of the control panel. Don't even notice it |

On the very top piece above the marquee? I like the bottom of the control panel idea... You guys meant that if you sat on the floor and looked up (at the control panel box), you'd see the button, right? |

I'd go on top toward the front. They put them on top toward the back in the arcades because it is hard to get to them without a stool when the machines are packed in next to each other. I personally am using a Powermate for mine, which sits ON the CP, just in front of the monitor bezel. This is a really expensive way to get a power switch though. I happened to have one sitting around, and used it. |

Walk up to your machine and lean on it, play a little on it and then see where you hit it. Don't put the button there. Reach up and see if there is a place that's handy but not noticeable. A lot of arcade machines have the on/off switch on the top near the back of the machine. I put mine right above the marquee. |

What do you mean on the top? On the very top piece above the marquee? Yes. My cab has about an 18" flat "roof" on it. It will be easy to reach, but out of the way of accidentally hitting it. |
