BUCKETHEAD:
Thanks guys!
I play this machine everyday! I love it.
So far up to 65,000 + for my TRON High score!
--- Quote ---just wondering, why did you place loose(?) parts in the cabinet instead of just a desktopcase or laptop?
would be easier to take it out to install or replace some software, not?

Big reason, Alot of Heat in this cabinet. With all the blacklights and marquee/mcp artwork lights
I have a USB port inside mounted next to the coin box.
I can stick a thumb drive in there to add software.
The parts are not loose in the cabinet, The motherboard, Hard drive and everything else is now mounted down.

Tell me it includes Discs of Tron too..

DISCS OF TRON was a horizontal game.
Plus it had an extra deflect button on the Joystick.
So, no it does not :(
I purchased a new marquee from www.phoenixarcade.com
You can see that here.

BUCKETHEAD:
Well, Sometime down the road?
When funds and economic times get better!
I plan to put a actual arcade monitor back in it.
With the original MIDWAY mounting brackets and monitor bezel.

You did a beautiful job dude. I wish I could get a dedicated Tron cabinet working or not for a reasonable amount of money.
There was one on ebay in GA that went for $67. Obviously it needed a lot of stuff but that's what a restore is all about.
I have an original Tron Marquee in my basement. It's in pretty good shape. They are on ebay all the time.
Good Job!

I got my Tron" Runnning DISCS OF TRON.
I had to add a small pushbutton to the JOYSTICK for the Deflect button.
Still gotta figure out the PUSH PULL Spinner problem. :dunno
