    Hmm, Ad-watch stopped the popup from writing to my registry. Not
nice.

Cool story. Thanks
Man I want a TSW. But my wife would kill me. Well it might be worth taking a
chance.

Sean,

      Thanks for the tour. I bought my one and only TSW2 more then 3 years
ago. The folks at TSW have always been there to answer any questions, offer
suggestions, and Julie always makes sure that any parts order gets out ASAP.

      As a side note I purchased the USB adapter and even after downloading
the VIA patch eventually my controller would stop responding to my input
commands.  Dave offered a full refund if I couldn't get it to work. I had
disconnected the unit and was going to ship it back in a few days. In the
meantime I had noticed that the steering pot was starting to go again after
about a year.  I had one pot left, so I called TSW and spoke to Julie. I
ordered 3 new 250 ohm DK pots, I noticed that the old ones were 100 ohm
pots. I asked Julie why. She said that they changed to 250 ohm pots for a
compatability issue with Win XP. When I told her that I was returning the
USB adapter, she said I should try it with the new pots. The pots arrived in
two days, and so far so good.

Joel,

    I'm planning to get a TSW2 Modified.  Can't wait to order it.  Sounds
like TSW has great customer service.  Are you happy with the TSW2?  What
sims are you using it for?

Hehe! As the article states it probably was the last wheel
he'll ever buy, so there's some cost saving argument to go with
;-)

Looky very much like a cozy family type tribal business. Way to
go, Thomases!
