Quoted from CaptainNeo:you are missing the point. You are going to have to throw your game out when Stern stops making boards, if you are relying on board swapping to keep your game running. The point is, years ago, you didn't have to worry about supplies of boards. Because YOU can fix your own boards with parts that cost a penny, or maybe. .35 cents , even today. Stern spike boards..that's a lot more tricky. And impossible if the specially coded chips fail. right now, sure you can order boards. but 15 years from now? then what?
