The old Atari ones were switching; my understanding is that IBM joysticks
are continuous.

the man is a true genius..?
tho' i thought that PC style joysticks were those switching
kind instead of
good old fashioned pots, if i were a little less in a hurry
to get to work
i'd formulate the follwing conclusions:
1 - "cool, does that mean i could use a mouse to control my
motm..?"
2 - "i could get a cheap steering column (for a driving
game) for ridiculous
motm control"
3 - "graphics tablet anyone..? (if i traced a picture of
myself, what sound
would it produce..!?"
cheers
