I am no EE, just a EH. (Electronic Hack). I know enough to be dangerous but way less than a 2nd quarter freshman EE.

Back in the dark ages I designed built and even sold small quantities of an adapter that would let you use an Atari digital joystick in place of the analog Apple ][ joysticks which made many classic arcade games way easier to play. that sounds simple, but isn't quite as it sounds due to how Apple implemented their decoder.
