You can toss an old PC in a cabinet to play those 60 games for WAAAAAAAY cheaper than you can buy one of those boards.

Not really ... at least not if you count your time. There are good reasons why these are far more popular to build for sale than MAME boxes.

For sale, sure, but for personal use, it doesn't take much time (especially for an experienced user).

I tend to factor in "repairability" as well.
