Mine is 23 5/8" and I've got a spinner at top-center.

yeah spinner there works, but a NORMAL sized trackball would really be pushing it
Ginsu Victim:
Yeah, I definitely can't do a trackball unless I make a swappable panel just for it (which I plan on).
GaryMcT:
Since mine is about this size, I'm likely to end up with multiple swappable control panels:
1) 7-button/2 player layout
2) single player layout that can possibly do Defender, Centipede.
3) Possibly a 4 dial panel for warlords. . I don't know if I care for having a dial on any other panel since the only other dial game that I care about is Tempest, and it's a vector game. I may just end up getting Tempest machine, or building another machine with a high resolution display and write a vector emulation backend for Mame. I'm not too happy with what I've seen of vector games on LCDs so far.
