Re: Atari board differences by cabinet type?

But the basis for that difference was monitor type, not cabinet type.

Like Chris C. already wrote, Atari appears to have only created one
board with one set of software for a game. Then the software has a way
to determine whether it is installed in an upright or cocktail and
different sections of code are executed based on that.

Now that I have written this, I am sure people will find examples to the
contrary. :-)
