Does anyone have a dead wintron they'd be willing to donate for
dissection purposes...

Thanks,
JB

Hello Joel,
Ole buddie, ole pal. If you are interested in selling your Wintron for a

reasonable cost and can certify its operation, I would be highly
interested.
As you are certainly aware they are not cheap (like me) ;-). I am really
not
in the financial position for the investment of a new one but would
settle
for a used Wintron as my S.W has not been powered up since I bought it,
5
years ago.
I have been kicking around the idea of an Arcadeshop board. They even
put me
in touch with the designer and he said there was a possibility he could
provide me with a schematic if I bought one.

Still holding out

Jim
