Me too - I got both. One goes so far as to have the grey skull-like face
on the Mtropolis player, but running that one gives me an error box
without text on it <g>. The other zip also uncompresses but has a stock
Win '95 exe icon on the player.
Bummer. Still, I've downloaded the MOV files on
http://www.sega.com/segapc
so at least I see a bit of what it looks like. Nice
