Does anyone know if it is possible to connect a Notebook computer up to a JAMMA cab using the J-PAC/I-PAC interfaces? I'm curious because I have an extra Laptop that is lying about that would fit perfectly in a cab I'm getting soon, and that would allow me to skip building an extra PC for emulation. Any help is appreciated. |

Quick answer. NO. Long answer, yes, as long as your notebook has a keyboard port and you are willing to purchase an expensive scan convertor. A lot of notebooks have TV-out. You might be able to take advantage of that somehow? In general though putting a notebook in a Mame cabinet is a waste of a good notebook. Especially since used notebooks outprice equivalent used PCs by about 500 percent. |

Hmm. OK, thanks Paige. I guess it's back to building a PC for it then. :D |
