Good article below - re reading brings clairity - sheds light on the fact - the funder Northlight recognizes PDS's 27 year track record in gaming and as well knows that theres a greater demand in the gaming industry - I like the fact Northlight - a big league investor is investing their 150 million - says a lot where they think they'll make monies- and why not... especially when one looks elesewhere to invest - not much out there.... Gaming Industry looks to be growing... with far more demand....

On another note - i was thinking about how a slot manufacturer could capatalize on how to offer casinos a greater advatage if they reengineered the slot machine unit with a tri ad player unit. three games attached - own seating - but better usage of flooe space and maximizing the floor space with more machines = accommodating more clients - thus increasing their percentage of earnings...
Or - second idea - reducing the height of the slot machine and plaxing a second machine above it on another open cat walk floor - agaIn maximizing floor space - leveraging what floor space a casino has by going vertical - 2 machine one over top another - with walk way small stair escalator to access the second level gaming slots.... if a casino has a hot area - good client volume - and doesnt want to build another casino facility - such a design could expand a casino and double the slot machines... Open area allows for visuial monitoring and security - open area allows client to still take part in the visual experience of the casino - and elderly individuals could access this area via small stair well or escalator - again - limiting the height of the machines say.. rediucing the height size by 1/3 of each machine - would still work and still look visually appealing and not too over domineering - even it it were kept to the exterior walls or center floor portion wrap around - being center of attraction....
Just ideas....
Cheers !
