Looking for an adapter (or very cheap joystick)

[xanis]

I have an old Gravis Blackhawk joystick that I bought back in probably '98 or something. It still works, and I'm looking to get some more use out of it for when I buy X-Plane 9. What I need is a USB adapter for it because it uses some old type of connector. Problem is, I have no idea what the plug is but I think it might be a DB9 or something similar. I've included some pics to help with the identification.

If the adapter search fails, or the adapter is too expensive, can anyone reccomend a CHEAP joystick? I don't need anything fancy.

Here are the pics of the joystick and its plug:

EDIT: Found it! The connector is a DB-15. Now that I know that, I'm going to buy this (DB15 female to USB male). Are there going to be any compatibility issues, or should this work? I'm going to be using it on my MBP under OSX 10.5 if that matters.

Yes that will work fine.

The only thing I wonder is if the drivers will work.

Good point.

For XP it shouldn't be a problem but with Vista the drivers won't work.
