Don't forget those ridiculous disc magnet flipper switches on Judge Dredds. Real gem of a part.

??? Those are aftermarket parts...and tape the discs down so they don't move if you have issues. They are usually installed to replace the extra stiff left flipper switch and make it feel like the right flipper.

A small thing, that’s why it is so annoying. The 10uf Choke on the 24 opto card on BSD. If the mist ball feature is not working 10 to 1 this choke has broken a leg or fallen off completely. I bet all but a few people have had to repair or replace this part. simple design fault.

My nomination is for any interconnect board from the system 11 era. What fool thought it was a good idea to have 2-4 connectors in each wire path...WTF!
