Hi there. I have been using Mame 32 on my pc. I like it, but want to
build a mini cab w/ just a few vertical only games on it. I want to
use a front end so windows is unnoticable. Or I could use DOS. I need
a nice simple front end and "baby step" instructions as this is my
first MAME machine. I have been collecting dedicated arcade machines
for 4 years now. Thanks. Any info is appreciated.

I know there was a "Vertical MAMEWAH" out there, called "VertiWAH":

http://vertiwah.jbeffects.com/

Unfotunately, the page doesn't load. The author is known as "EndTwist"
on the BYOAC forums, so you might track it down through him.
