Yes, it connects via the USB port and essentially is just a replacement
for the left side of your keyboard. You can assign individual keystrokes
or macros with multiple keypresses. So instead of ctrl and 1 having to be
pressed for a quick chat message, you just create the ctrl 1 macro and
assign that to a key. Some guys for the TPTCC league mounted the Nostromo
on the shell of their wheels, but my Black Momo is too small, the keypad
would be in the way of the paddles as the wheel turned. So I got couple
of cheap L shaped brackets and used a vice to unbend the 90 degree angle to
about 75 degrees. Then drilled through the base and fixed a couple of
screws. Bingo a group of keys, easily reached. It has 4 possible sets of
instructions, so 15 keys plus a clickable mouse wheel, plus the 8 way
joypad plus the big red button x4 equals.....well a-lot of combos that can
be entered..although I'm not gonna be search for which mode I have the
thing in while racing. I haven't had it long enough yet to assign more
than the basic 15 possible options in the 1st mode.
