sorry i didnt know they were illegal

anyway back to the board talk, i think i understand

would hate to spend the cash and find out they have lag and button input cant be changed...

Also, there are select games on the multiboard that are emulated poorly.  Sound being the main issue.  So if you're looking for a close to faithful emulation, MAME is the way to go, not the multiboards.

matsadona:

Isn't the obvious advantage with the xxx-in-1 box that it is equipped with a JAMMA interface?
I.e. that you don't need to mess around with keyboard and video interfaces etc.

As others already stated, it is a MAME PC but with restrictions in what you can alter.
The ones I have used is similar in performance (as long as you play the old classics) even though the CPU and RAM is obsolete compared to a new PC.

So, if you can live with the games and frontend that comes with it and prefer a simple and convenient installation - then the xxx-in-1 box is for you.

question, with a multi board can button layout be changed in game?

also is there a list which multi boards have poorly ported games?
