Send Saitek an e-mail and see if they will replace the X36 stick.  Worse they could say is no,right?

Hey X45 is real cheap($79.95), hope it isn't build cheap.  I am ready to order one just as soon as they will sell me one  :)

<trots off to Saitek store to see if they are ready to sell me one>

Well,sadly, it still says available in August.   Begining to wonder if that means August of 2002!!

Prolly 2 weeks, heheeeeeee  :D

After the experiance I had with incompatibility of a Tmaster stick and tmaster rudder pedals I won't get another tmaster product. Seems outright rediculous when gameport equipment from same company allegedly designed to work together won't.

I'm personally saving my pennies for a TM Cougar.

What kind of stick was it?  You do understand that just because a joystick hooks up through the game port doesn't necessarily mean that it functions electronically the same way a standard game port joystick does, right?

TM Gear with Bob Church's Digital chips is unquestionably the best equipment on the market today,  there is no comparison,  I've never run out of places to program things and that goes for Falcon 4.0 as well.  If I ever do I'll read up on logical programming and voooommmhhh   there's a few more hundred combo's to play with.  As for the previous post about the TM cougar gear,  I got my money ready I'm just waitin for the release  :)
