Title: Are these triple buttons any good?
Post by: creatine28 on September 03, 2003, 02:22:06 pm: http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&category=13718&item=3240054340 (http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&category=13718&item=3240054340)

If these are good, I thought they might save some space on a control panel?

Please tell me you're kidding...

He's talking about admin buttons... (Enter, Esc, Tab, Pause, that sort of thing)

Post by: Howard_Casto on September 04, 2003, 02:46:53 am: No they look like a standard deer hunter button. They are pretty cool looking actually, aside from the obvious trivial pursuit coloring. What's good about them is the fact that they take a decal very well, so you can make them look like whatever with a print out and some clear contact paper.

I'm not big on menu buttons either, but sometimes they are needed. Granted not on my upright, but I might put them on my cocktail to save some space as it'll need a few admin buttons and it'll be ipac free.

2) Howard... you ACTUALLY LIKE something??? Wow!

I don't think you would want them for anything but menus (others mentioned) unless you could change the yellow to a blue. Then it would be great for kids and that one 3 color button game.

But you should be able to find 3 buttons that you have complete control over for about 50c more then that.

Not really a deal... and you cant put 2 of these next to each other...
