Thanks Doc, I saw that a couple of days ago but it's not USB and I would like to go that route.
I have to place an order there for some other items so i'll pick-up at least one.
If I remember correctly these were fairly expensive sticks in there day.

At least you have a back-up.
I actually tried to play Descent 2 with keyboard and mouse.
What a joke. I fealt like a junkie as I really needed my Descent 2 fix.

Thanks Doc,
Thats what i'm looking for.
I noticed that it is listed as being for use with both a 15 pin gameport AND a USB port.
How does that work, is there an adapter from a USB to 15 pin or is it a 15 pin to USB?
Thats new to me, I was not aware of those type of adapters.

That is the one I have. Yes it is an adapter inline. Gameport to USB.BTW did you get a chance to see if they are instock at your local Target?

The didn't have it here which is not surprising as they no longer have it listed on there site either.
Since there is a gameport to USB adapter made maybe i'll pick-up a couple of the sticks the geeks has.
Correct me if i'm wrong here but these were pretty highly rated sticks in there day.
BTW Do you know where I can pick up this type of adapter.

Got my Top Gun specifically for D3/Merc. Finally a stick that improved upon my old Thrustmaster Flightstick for Descent!
