> Gat, I'm just curious. How the hell did you wind up with that control panel?

Well... I was building my MAME cab and I wanted a yoke for the analogue games, and at the time Star Wars yokes were impossible to find for cheap... and this "Yoke Controller Identical to Star Wars" turned up on EBay for cheap. It was advertised as being a good replacement part for a Star Wars cab restoration. I was a little nervous, but it was cheap enough to be worth checking it out, so I bought it. When it arrived, it was in a giant box... much bigger than a yoke should be, and when I opened it, it was the entire CP. I was like, "What's this shit?", and I was bummed the yoke was built into the CP, which is metal. Tearing the yoke out from the CP would require some effort. I felt ripped off. I set it aside until I had the time and motivation to tear it up. I ended up getting an actual Star Wars yoke, so I tried to sell it as a "Just Like Star Wars Yoke" but no bites, so I just boxed up the CP and put it in the barn with all my other junk. Years later I realized what it was. Yeah, I can get pics.
