Currently i play often with MSX game on my laptop thanks to the MSX Modules.  :)

Even if you don't like AtomicFE , that modules are at least very usefull to discover  (or re-discover) quickly some great all game and machine!.   you just need 5 minutes to test a machine :

-Download Atomic 
-Intall it with the default option , NO CONFIGURATION REQUIRED
-Donwload a module , install it
-Copy few roms where it is asked.

And Play!   That all ,   less than 5 minutes of installation... no headhake... and hours of game!  :)

Angelscry did really a fabulous work on that modules.

It would be very interresting to know that one are the most used here.

I'll have to answer this one again in a few weeks.  My fist cab I use atomic but set it up back in the day before pnp.  My new cab I'm about to go down the list and try them all.  I have used the laser disk pnp and am still amazed how easy it is and how well it workes.  I plan on using a mixture of pnp and some emus I will set up my self.  Will keep you posted.

Edit:  Also forgot about the arcades enhanced pnp.  Works great and has some cool list features and will use the best emu for certain games.

How bout you havok?

All old school, manual config!

(But then I'm a Systems Engineer, so that's my line of work...)

 ;D

Just wanted to get an idea of what people are using out there, I think I will try out some of the modules - they really are quite a time saver!
