It's funny that you mention that.  I just did the same thing the other day so that I can easily hook up my external hard drive when needed.

Pongo:
Mine is hinged so I can swap the 4/8 way restrictor plate on my joysticks.

If not for those, I'd probably still do the hinge just for easy access.
RayB:
Go for easy removal. Doesn't have to be hinged, but make it clamped or partly bolted.

By the way, where does one get a "mini" keyboard for cheap?

I can't remember where I bought mine, but I found one for under $20 here:

Also, this "roll up" keyboard looks pretty neat as it can be stuffed inside your coin door:

On-topic, access to the cp WILL be needed, my original cab was a conversion so I just used the hidden clamps that were already there, accessed thru the coin door.

Ray, FWIW a quick google came up with this:

I'm looking for a mini keyboard for my touchscreen WTF Cade (less than 12" wide) for entering names etc. in the games.
I might like the full-size rollup one for 10 bux, depending on shipping of course!
Gotta look around a bit more.

Keep me posted if y'all find anything cheap that would work!

ARCADIAC!
