That is what my parents call me. Doesn't have anything to do with guns, though.

This all depends on what light gun you plan to use...

1: Guncon2 or "TV" act labs.

You can use the Green component connector instead of a "video out" from the gfx card, so long as you are outputting a component signal that is around 15khz.

2: PC USB actlabs

In theory this will still work on the green connector, but you need to use 31Khz horizontal sync rates - which I don't think will work with the tv you listed.

3: LCD Topguns.

Works whatever you do as does not use the video signal at all.

I have the 27" version, and it does in fact stay on component in after turning off and back on.

Sorry to keep hijacking this....
I just got back from Best Buy and checked that TV out.  The 24" model listed by rbarr110 does not remember the AV input last selected and always goes back to channel 4 or whatever it was.  They had another flatscreen 24" Insignia with component input that DID remember the input when turned off and on, but it was $180 or so.  And of course as you say, the 27" remembered too.  None of the TVs powered back on when unplugged and plugged back in, but instead went into a standby mode.  Is there some way to fix that in the service menu or something?
