Hey Tonk, quick question. Are you using a s-video cable or composite cable with your MVS/supergun setup in your collection pics??
PS. I hope you are feeling better after your surgery. I also had face surgery(to remove my birthmark) and they had to cut pretty deep but I remember coming home and playing basketball right after <IMG SRC="smilies/loco.gif" border="0"> Hopefully yours was as successful!
