Nope, just a vendor I highly recommend. :D

Here's the state of things as of a couple nights ago.  Very very very rough prototype.  I have all the buttons in and the joysticks mounted.  I haven't wired up the buttons yet since I got stuck playing Robotron last night for quite a while.  :)

So far the left-hand joystick is too close to the left, and the buttons are too close to the joysticks.  The middle is also not complete.  I think anything in the middle is going to have to be in a vertical line to make room for moving the joysticks and buttons apart, and moving the lefthand player a bit to the right.

GaryMcT:
Ugh, I can't believe a newer NVidia or ATI card can't do low frequency resolutions when my old juniker laptop could!  I see an ArcadeVGA in my near future. . . spent too much money on this stuff lately, so it'll have to wait and just stretching for now. . yuck.

Back to controls. . . .

GaryMcT:
Got the PC limping along using video stretching etc. until I get an ArcadeVGA.  Man oh man is this machine hitching like mad!  Going to have to kill all the non-essential stuff in XP.  I already have Linux on that machine so I may go ahead and give that a try for running at the proper resolution and refresh rate with AdvanceMame.  If that works out, may update the diffs to the latest Mame. . looks like AdvanceMame is a pretty old verison now.

I would put the P1/P2 start buttons in the corners before going vertical with them.
