Two Working Guns! (little nuts but works)

Ok, it's abit crazy but if you REALLY want two working light guns you can do it like this. Simply get 2 PCs and network them. Attach one lightgun to each machine and simply start a network game with mame32k :) Sure it's abit crazy but it should work. I mean if you REALLY REALLY want those two guns.

Is this just a theory or has it been tested?

Where do you get this "mame32k" you speak of?
My statements are my own opinions. They have the value that the reader gives them. My opinion of my opinion varies between foolish and brilliant and these opinions often change with new information.

lol!  But now each person is shooting at their own screen right??

Geez...linux has some sort of support for multiple mice, right?  I've always wondered about setting up my cabinet with Linux.  I'm just not sure how well Mame will run in it compared to Win2000.
