I use it in my cab. I like it. Ease of configuration was big for me and this is about as easy I found. He updates this like every other day it seems.  ;D

I use it as well. I absolutely love it. It does practically all the work for me. Built in control panel viewer and everything. He is even considering adding the ability to skin it in the future. Tom is really dedicated to keeping that thing up to date and takes almost all logical suggestions into account.

I use it on one of my cabs and also love it.

It is idiot proof for configuration, handles movies, mp3's has built in genre / game type sorting as well. Support PC games and pretty much any emulator. It's not skinable from the application itself, but it is skinable I'm currently using the blue arcade skin.

since you seem to know about it, just how would one go about getting it to launch one's PC games?

Add the specific PC game as an emulator in the configuration tool or as an external application, both should work. This is I believe also covered in the FAQ for the front end.
