actually, though maybe this should go in the requests thread, this would be nice. It would be great to be able to specify multiple sets of folders to be used as favorites (IE: My Favs, Wife's Favs, Kids Favs, etc...). Similar how you edit the config file to add more emulators within the advanced configuration screen you can specify how many favorites folders you want as well. You could even subdivide favorites into fighting favorites, sports favorites, scrollers, classic, etc... Just be able to add a name and title to the new favorite from within the advanced configuration screen. When you add a new favorite, it could pop up a little submenu asking which favorites category you want to add it to to keep it clean looking. Removing it process could remain the same.

To tell you the truth I haven't completely finished setting it up yet. It's been the biggest pain getting it mounted up and comfortable. It's a playstation 2 steering wheel I've hacked apart though. I'd like to find some beefier pedals as the plastic ps2 ones are kind of cheesy. Here's a couple pics of the makeshift setup I've got going to test out placement of the controls and monitor. All in all, should cut down on the size needed on the inside of the cab for computer stuff too as the laptop itself is pretty small. I can build a small channel into the side of it with the docking station in it that the laptop just slides into with a door covering it. Plus it works out because when you move it around you can pull the laptop and not have to worry about it getting banged up or anything if you have to put it in the back of a truck. Keeping it cool should be easier too with a couple of decent fans and a much smaller space to pull the air out of rather than a fullsized computer.
