I need a joystick!!

[ColpoUulo]

Im so sick of this POS Microsnot Sidewinder 3d Pro I got from a friend that im ready to try something new. I'd love to go with a USB product from Saitek...but I dont know what to choose, I really enjoy all the features of THIS joystick...it's just a B*TCH getting the thing to function under the gameport. I play alot of Flight Simulator 2000 and occasionally some X-Wing Alliance - What would be a good joystick for me that isnt gonna break the bank? THANKS!

if you are male, you should already have some sort of joystick...

ok well fair enough mod

as it goes, i have a saitek X8-30 (cheap job)

it works ok with X-Wing Alliance (the game i bought it for). I havent used it since and its just gathering dust. Its a good joystick, so I would be the first to recomment Saitek.
