lufcfan,
Just a question... I can't argue with you about the vertical position being better for the PS2 laser because I don't have the knowledge of how the laser functions. However, I play my console horizontally because I thought that it was better for the tray(during the eject). On consoles that I have left it vertical the eject seems to be a little jerky and not as smooth. Maybe you could shine some light on this.

Basically the tray is not affected by the way in which the PS2 stands, however I do know what you mean. You are right in the way that the tray is smoother horizontally but it cannot harm the tray in any way, shape or form however the laser can be damaged or damage a disc etc, etc... so I would stand mine up vertically rather than horizontally. The reason for the tray seeming smoother horizontally is because the motor is mounted in transverse (the opposite way round to it's normal operating position) when stood vertically.

Hope this helps...
