In a vertical arcade cab, does the screen display the full width of the screen alwats, or is there slight boarders on the sides?

Yes alwats. 

I never seen borders on any vertical cabs, unless wea re talking about dead space on the tube.

Just tried donkey kong on my Dell 24" widescreen monitor, and it does appear to not fill the screen at the top and bottom, so i think the aspect is being displayed correctly. If this is case i would get a large screen size if i used a 22" 16:9 than a 22" 4:3!!

nexus6:

why that? i guess that the 16:9 has less width (rotated) than the 4:3.

lettuce:

Yeah a 22" 16:9 screen is taller when rotated that of a 4:3
