INPUT WANTED! Bartop/MAME
« on: September 30, 2008, 02:49:54 pm »
Hi y'all.
I loaded some games on the touchscreen PC that I kept.  I'd like to ask for ideas on how to build a lightweight/portable enclosure for this.  I want to be able to use it in bartop angled orientation and maybe vertically for MAME games.  I'll use an external joystick as a CP. probably a PS1 stick with usb adapter.  May go wireless for keyboard.  I'll need to be able to access the strip on the back as it is where all of the inputs are located.  Any ideas or links to projects I might be able to modify?   See Pics.

Also, I'm having some issues with certain point'n click games, the touchscreen doesn't always register the "clicks" position accurately.  Many games I have to play in windowed mode for accuracy.  Any workarounds for this? 

Thanks in advance for your help!
ARCADIAC!
