www.vpforums.org and the HyperPin forums at Hyperspin-fe.com are great resources.

Technically speaking, it IS the best of all time.  Highest selling pinball machine of all time by a landslide. 

You know why?  It was made by bally/midway.  Everything great we got from midway. 

RIP midway.

I'd concentrate on just getting Visual Pinball to work first and then worry about HyperPin.  Getting VP installed can be frustrating, but if you use the installer found on the VP Forums, it's incredibly easy.  Getting Hyperpin to work was A LOT easier than I expected it to be.  If Hyperspin is just as easy, then I may have to check that out too.

I did this document a long time ago but the Visual Pinball installation (with VPinmame) step by step instructions probably are still valid.

Hope it helps.
