by farecard
I had a look inside both new and old vending machines today; while the revenue collectors emptied same.
I don't recall if they previously had 3 boxes of coinage, or just one for nickels & the other for quarters.
But there's now three; the third to dispense $1 coins.
I also note the both flavors seem to have the same CPU card in the upper RH corner, with hex keyboard. I wonder if the old ones were like that before, or radically changed when they added the smartcard support.
