OK so hmm, lets see.. I already built my MAME cab is there any way to have it run a pcb inside it as well ? like maybe get a kvm switch or whatever so when i want to run MAME i can, and when i want to run the actual PCB / ROM board I can ? is this possible. Using U360 sticks and rest of my buttons are hooked into a Mini-pac? Sort of going the other way this time.. id like to build a dedicated.

It depends a bit on your board but the easiest way would be to wire your cab Jamma compliant and use a jPac. There are multi-Jamma boards available where you can plug in any Jamma board and your PC.
Wish list: Galaga, Pacman, Pooyan, Star Wars cockpit, Gauntlet, Tron

And the Lord spake, saying, 'First shalt thou take out the Holy Pin. Then, shalt thou count to three. No more. No less. Three shalt be the number thou shalt count, and the number of the counting shall be three. Four shalt thou not count, nor either count thou two, excepting that thou then proceed to three.
