Which interface are you using?

There was a post a while ago about this. From what I remember it works fine.

: Does it work correctly with MAME32?

: I'm in the planning stages here, and was thinking of going with all USB interfaces, and mounting a USB hub under the control panel. From what I read there seems to be no problem using the USB controls, but I'm wondering if mame itself will recognize the change if I switch control panels mid session. If not, I imagine I would just need to re-start mame? Rebooting every time I switch is something I want to avoid if at all possible. Multiple panels is something I see as a necessity, need to start small and cheap (maybe a 4-way and a few buttons, to get the woman playing pac-man and her old favs ASAP), but I need several different controller setups, and don't wnat to try to cram them all onto one panel.
