Is this board legal?
rCadeGaming:
Is it just me or did Jason's testimony just get stricken from the record? Order in this court! Haha
Kangum:
I like the jukebox idea. then there is no issue
DaOld Man:
I think a jukebox might require more money than Im willing to throw into this right now, but I am considering it.
Back to the 60 in 1 jamma board: I sent the website an email and asked them if the games are legit. They sent me an automated acknowledgement that they received the email and would answer my question very soon, so I know they got the email.
It's been three days and no word from them yet.

Now you are scaring me because my next project is going to be a Jukebox. I know how much money I have invested in my cabinet, which has been a decent amount even though the PC and Monitor were freebies, why would a Jukebox cost more if you don't mind me asking?
DaOld Man:
Well, compared to a regular mame cab with a PC, the cost wouldnt be a lot higher I suppose. However if you used a touch screen monitor on the juke, then this would increase the cost.
I was comparing the cost of a juke box with the cost of using the jamma 60 in 1 board.
By using this board I can deduct the cost of the PC. Wiring everything to a simple on/off switch becomes very simple, thus less cost, plus with the jamma board I would only use 1 joystick and 3 or 4 buttons (I think).
Plus a much cheaper (than a touch screen) CRT monitor (Which I have on hand anyway).
Anyway, I was comparing cost of juke box compared to that setup.
Dont let my statement scare you away from doing a juke.
Its well worth whatever you put into it in my opinion, but thats if you are doing it for yourself or a close friend or family member.
One more thing, the more complicated a project is (juke box VS 60 in 1 cab), the more of a chance someone will be calling me to work on it for them :-)
