What software do you actively use in your MAME cab other than MAME?

-mame only and a autofilter set to show only games pre 1990

Interstate '82
Interesting that you have Interstate 82 on there.  I have it, but didn't seem to get much out of it.  Do you play it often?  Does it get more interesting as you get farther into it?  Do you play it with the joysticks, a trackball, or do you attach a wheel?

I have only played it a few times.  It came bundled with with a video card a while ago.

I don't have a wheel.

I installed it for the first time a month ago.

I left Moorfrosch xxl and Mutant Storm off the list.

WinXP + SP2
EK-Mame (supports newer roms and Kaillera and has source available which I tweak to add Alan's Hacks and a couple of my own Cabinet friendly hacks. Although I'm currently using .92 which dropped Kaillera support, so I'm working on adding it back - since the source is available)
MAMEWAH
Daphne (CVS Version - which supports Dragon's Lair 2)
VirtuaNES (I'd dump this but my girlfriend would kill me - she loves Super Mario Bros 3)
Pinmame
Visual Pinball
(I used to run Magic Engine for TurboGrafx 16, but MAME added Bonk's recently and that was the only game left that didn't have a better arcade version)

Some PC Games:
Dragon's Lair 3d
Air Hockey 3D ( http://avagames.net/airhockey/air-hockey-download.htm )
Hamsterball
Mutant Storm
Maelstrom
Hyperbowl
(URLS for many of these here: http://www.timoproductions.com/arcade/pcarcadegames.html )

I'd like to find a good Virtual Foosball table.

Some Tools:
VolumeTray (this lets me map a single button on my control panel for Volume up and down that works regardless of emulator) http://glorysoft.omsk.ru/volumetray.html
Webdrive (I mount my remote ftp server as m: and then map
