hi there,
please do not flame me, if this is not the right place to ask for this.. anyway, i hope that there are lot of people with enough knowledge, google does not want to cooperate :-)
i'm looking for a simple, digital joystick (with microswitches, like these for c-64) with two independent fire buttons to use with a pc. i have found a speedlink competition pro stick, on usb, it is almost perfect, but i really need fire buttons on a stick, not on joy's base.. i really hate those loose, slow-reacting and unprecise analog pc joysticks... it can be new or used. please, give me some advice?
greets, ricardo w.

Don't know where you're living, but if you're state-side shop around second hand stores and you can often find old electornics. You may have trouble hooking it up to your newer system, and you'd have even more trouble getting it recognized. But if you're willing it can be mad rewarding to get it to happen.

It's theoretically possible to hook up a digital joystick to any functioning keyboard controller.
