Instead of a Florescent or incandescent light for the back of the Marquee, I went with Neon. Taking 2 dead license plate neon units apart, I took the power supply from one and the tube from the second, and make a nice bright blue (a couple pics look purple, its blue though) backlight. The reason I went with neon is that I've got a circuit (you'll read about it elsewhere soon) That does some nice things with it. Fading in and out marquee, bass beat strobing, etc... There's a few cool things I'm working on here.

There should be a major update soon. I've got the light gun now (ACT-LABS ROCKS!) the trackballs ready (hack page coming soon) But due to a garage sale and stuff, I haven't had the room to cut up the 3/4" mdf for the CP... Wednesday is the day! Thursday's Canada day, and I wanna play by friday! (I still have the monitor to fix, but it could happen....
