I acquired my first slot machine. Not by choice but by chance. The owner just wanted it gone. The monitor was going bad and he removed it to have it repaired. When he did that, he broke the tail of the glass crt tube. I saw the same model on ebay with a lcd monitor. Not knowing anything about slots, I did a google search for the monitor and all I found is a 17" touch screen type and it's $425. Since this model is not touch screen model, I was hoping to find a non-touch screen lcd monitor. My main concern, is the machine worth putting a new monitor in? Secondly will I need some type of adapter to run the LCD?

It looks like the only monitor available is the touch screen for $425. Not sure I want to sink that much $ into this machine. If anyone has a used monitor that they can bring to Allentown please PM me.

The machine was broken when I acquired it and no manual came with it. It has a row of push buttons along the front so I figured it was a non-touch screen type. So yes it could be a touch screen model?
