The Ferrari wheel started turning itself right on day two. It has been returned to Game. I will now be looking for a Logitech wheel. Anyone know why the Wingman FF wheel doesn't appar to be available anywhere in the UK? Andi.
If you dont mind paying top price for it (119:99) then ask your local Curry's store to order you one from their central warehouse. They had over 140 of them listed as in stock there just before xmas and NONE in the stores. I had to jump up and down a fair bit to get them to order me one as the dispatch from central warehouse is supposed to be computer controlled, working on a store by store stock level. When the store sells its last one re-ordering is automatic, trouble is these wheels seem to have grown legs and have walked out of the stores without deleting themselves from the computer records, so a catch 22 situation....... Good luck. --

Cheers Mike, I'll let you know how I get on. These damn bank holidyas are making buying stuff really a pain. Andi, (Just down the road in T/Wells).

>Gameplay have them for 94.99 I have a probably stupid question. I don't have a key for the Pound symbol on my keyboard. I can get one with ASCII codes, but I don't remember which number it is. My question is this: Where is this located on the keyboard of a person who uses it regularly? Is it in the same place as my $ symbol? (Shift-4) What other differences might there be in a keyboard used in GB? And furthermore..what about all those letters with the extra dots and lines and accents on them that I see from people in Denmark, etc. Just idle curiousity.

The $-symbol is on my keyboard on AltGr - 4 and the -symbol is AltGR - 3, I guess that if your $-symbol is shift - 4 then the -symbol may be shift - 3. There is a big difference between GB-keyboards and Scandinavian keyboards. All the {[]}.,;:+\'_*- symbols are located different, and it is a real pain to do some DOS-work when nit set up for Scandinavian keyboards. If this isn't OT then what is :) -- Olav K.

Be nice if they had some stock! They have been on back order for many weeks with their supplier and as of a week ago they still didnt know when they would get stock. MikeT. --
