: You're wrong about the "*no* current mouse hack can keep up with the fast, prolonged spin anyway..." part. My homebuilt one does just fine. You should do a little more research on that one...
I apologized for that one already...Should I again? Somebody just shoot me please. Thanx.
: No counterweight??? Uhggg... Tried that before...
Actually, I found a game of Arkanoid more easily controllable without the weight (tried both ways). The weight has momentum and when you are trying to reverse directions quickly and precisely, it's more difficult. If you really want a weight, add $3.00 to the price and i'll include one.
: So does this unit come pre-assembled, or just a box of parts that I have to put together?
Everything that can possibly be put together before mounting it in your to your panel, is.
: Some pictures would be nice.
Hold yer horses! :)
