Nice! It's great to see some old stuff repurposed. But what to use it for? :)
It feels kind of strange to control each LED off a shift register though - I'd have thought they'd matrix them and use a dedicated LED driver like MAX7219. Maybe they didn't want any flicker for some reason.
Do you think you could post up the switches name/product ID? It might help others find the info if they're googling for it?
