I think I'll take the plunge and try it out. I saw the radio shack
converter and a few others but I need at least three gameport slots.
All the extra features on the Suncom are keyboard emulation via the ps2
port so they should work as is. The biggest reason I want to convert
to USB is... if I assume correctly I can hook up the joystick to one
port, the throttle to another, and the pedals to a third. This
"should" allow me to use both axis on the throttle so I will wind up
with: x-y for yoke (stick), x-y for throttle (left and right engine),
and x for rudder. All the buttons on the Suncom are moot because like
I mentioned, they are all emulated through the ps2 keyboard wedge.<br>

and four buttons worked fine - ie the 'basic' PC Gameport supported
controls. I couldn't get the other functions up. <br>

Now, having said that, the adapter has four different emulation
settings, none of which were "CH Products Yoke". (I don't remember what
they were - they're marked ABCD and I can't find the booklet) so it may
well be that the extra functions of a different yoke / stick would be
supported.<br>
