Gottlieb eprom adapter

I alluded to it a bit in the previous post, but figured I would show an update on my Gottlieb eprom adapter in a bit more detail.

This is a fairly simple one.  Folks have asked if I could provide one with all the games on a single chip, with jumper selects on it.  Technically it is feasible, but really not cost effective in this situation.  Plus it would require me to have access to the code, which we all know that Gottlieb code is not available as openly as Williams or Bally.  

So it will be a basic adapter allowing you to use a 2716 eprom in place of the impossible to find and program Rockwell 6351 prom chip on Gottlieb system 1 CPU boards.  (at least I think it's a 6351 from off the top of my head.  Either way, impossible to get).   I'm looking to see if it will work on the earlier version sound boards too, but haven't had much luck finding the appropriate schematics.   Should be available before the end of the month,  here's a photo from my board printers showing it just prior to final cutting and shipping.
