Stay away from electronic slot machines. Especially the ones that have a really chintzy sound of coins hitting the pan.

In 1997-98, I worked as a tech on the computers and Keno machines at Foxwoods Casino in Ledyard, CT. I figured the mechanical slots should be okay. Then I saw one of them being serviced (being neither trained, nor having a service license, I did not service slot machines). Notwithstanding all of the mechanical wheels, there's computer chips innside those babies. If software errors can go undetected , so can software designed to gyp the player.

Caveat emptor.
