The Idea is to make it as simple as plugging a keyboard into a

underneath the pin or inside the coin door. I plug in the lap top
box and away he goes, unplug it and away I go, or hell just set it on
the ground and away I go... unpluging the opto pcb's in the machine
and pluging them into the box is too much work, want to make it easy,
so easy he can do it....
Just a thought, but does your friend have the strength and dexterity to
mess around with connectors and plugging stuff in?
You know, its weird, most people out there dont think like I do, not
because they dont want to, just they dont need to... I want to make
it custom for him to use, and easy to use.
You're not the first to come up with this. I think it was either Data
East or Sega that customized a few games (cutaway cabinet, sip/puff
tube modifications) for somebody in a wheelchair. Others have shown
up here in rgp over the years.
