Does anyone do a multi game board that lets you:

1. Load your own roms (both horizontal and vertical) so you only have the games rou are interested in
2. Allow selection of Horizontal and Vertical games to both run on a horizontal monitor with the correct ratio on the vertical games (albeit squeezed onto the monitor), same way mame does?

1. No..have not seen a board that will allow loading your own...
2. I did this a while back with a MAME setup. I mounted a 21" LCD display on a turntable,simply rotate it for horizontal or vertical themes.
 Just use a PS2 to contact adaptor to Emulate the joysticks/buttons...

I may be wrong, but I thought I read about a board that you could load your own games on.  Scratch that, the info is below and the roms look to be loaded on the hard drive already:

On Mame you don't need to rotate your screen you can do that in software.

For games like Pacman that you want to use in cocktail mode you need to start the game, use the TAB key, go to dipswitch settings, and change the mode from Upright to Coctail.
escape out of the settings and then quit the game. You then need to use the Windows Interface of mame, choose properties, choose the display tab, under the drop down called rotation you choose clockwise. When you start the game again it will now play head to head and auto-flip the screen.
