Don't have a cab yet so can't answer the poll but while I am waiting for it, I'm prepping the software as my one card setup is probably not good enough for UVP or B2S or whatever there is that's not hyperpin's backglass solution. However, once I receive a better video card and a dedicated PC, I will consider it.

I use B2S on older tables, especially EM tables so I have the original mechanical scoring. On the vast majority I use UVP. I like UVP because I can edit the backglass if it is not accurate to the original. (I'm mildly OCD and being a perfectionist is my downfall.)
On new tables I tend to switch back and forth depending on what the latest greatest release of a table is using. When a table is getting lots of updates, changing the script gets to be a little tedious though.

I'm okay with either as long as it is either accurate with the original or allows me to tweak it to the accuracy level I can live with. If/when UVP comes out with the ability to add the old score wheels I'll be in wired!

I use UVP on all my 120 pins loaded on my table.
I have a few B2S tables for games like Diner, cirqus Voltaire, time machine ,and EM games.
My only small drawback of recent b2s games like funhouse,f14,black knight 2000 is that I like using the original rom, for me, those b2s versions give me "Rom stutter".
The new Scorcerer "b2s" is very cool.

I do not use UVP only because I do not think my old computer can handle it. It was everything to do to make the games playable without stutter on the more complex tables. Using UVP would be pushing my luck. Still sometimes I wish That the old reel games or the digital displays were in their right spots but until I can afford a better machine I will not be able to use them.
