My thoughts exactly, though if I were to choose between 2 and 4, I'd rather
have 4 so it would be truer to the original game. Unless a better solution
presented itself, I'd take a trashed control panel and punch a hole in it
for a pot with a knob.
My chief interest is a LL regardless of how I get it. Asteroids and
Asteroids Deluxe I have so I'm not as concerned about them.
