force feed back wheel

Cheers!

I think it was you that recommended the el cheapo compusa wheel a
little while ago wasn't it? Anyway, I got the wheel, and it sure is a
big improvement over the ms3d pro joystick that I was using previously.
Would you happen to know if the ch pedals are compatible with the el
cheapo compusa wheel? After all, what the real tightwad wants is a
cheap wheel, and cheap pedals, that can again be used with a cheap
stick.... ;-) I will check out that Saitek force feedback next time I
get to the store though. When/if the GPL ff patch comes out I may want
to switch. BTW Computergeeks.com have a refurbished logitec ff wheel
for around $100 i think. Do you think it is worth the extra $25? Your
opinions are appreciated.
