[motm] MOTM Joystick in no time

2002-07-19 by elhardt@aol.com

When going through some old boxes of stuff I found a non-working Apple II 
joystick (turned out just to be an open in the ribbon cable).  My immediate 
thought was to use it with my MOTM, so I ripped out the wiring, re-wired it, 
added the appropriate resistors, replaced the game buttons with X-Y 
switchcraft jack outputs, and now have nice joystick for MOTM use.  So if you 
find old joysticks laying around, they can still be useful.  Picture at:
