Last night, I was working on my Cabinet until the wee hours. Slamming beer after beer. Having A good ole time. Got up today, to find that I had ripped the curcit board out of my Xterminator (I do remember doing this). Anyway has anyone ever tried daisey chaining these? I played around with the board today and it seems to be A easy hack. I also tried it (one board) with mame32, neorageX and dos mame (had to get Emu+ for the pad to work in dos mame). I know the xterminator works well as A single pad and with non emu games. One strange thing that happened in Dos mame. Programming it for a single game under (keys this game). Was A couple times the num lock and caps lock would start flashing. Would this be ghosting? game play seemed ok and never saw this happen in game play. But I was using only 1 and not many key presses. Can you have ghosting through the joy port if your programming it to key presses? I think I'm set on ordering the powerRamps. But I now have this Xterminator that I may never get back toughter (-;...

Any help on the Xterminators. Thanks Jim
