I prefer the slim w/ magic keys to the fliptop fatty fat fat. Maybe my fliptop was just cheap, but it was not a perfect fit.

Swap Magic are boot discs that allow you to boot burned games.

In order to use the Swap Magic discs, you have to be able to open your dvd drive without reseting the PS2. Fliptop and magic keys are ways of doing that. You can also use a slide card for the fat PS2's.
