Just got my cab (Combatribes that was converted from a
Xenophobe) and now I'm ready for a new control panel.

Here are the components I want on the CP:
- 4 joysticks
- 2 players with 6 buttons, 2 with 3 buttons(18 total)
- 1 coin and 1 start button each (8 total)
- Trackball
- Spinner

I'll use the keyboard hack for the usual buttons
(coin, start, any others?) and the serial port for the
trackball and spinner. What about the joysticks and
their buttons? Would the SNES hack be a good plan for
that (via parallel port)? Use of combination of
keyboard and gameport? I want to be able to use the
joysticks in pair for games like Karate Champ, etc.
So keep that in mind too.

One more question. Where do I get a JAMMA fingerboard?

Thanks,
-Nefarious
