Re: Potentiometer on Parallel Port?

Sadly, anything with a 97 cent tag trailing the dollar amount is discontinued and will soon disappear in the annals of things you wish RadioShack still carried. If your store doesn't have it, unless another one close to you does, chances are you won't be finding one. Luckily, when I first saw these things go discount for $5.00, I bought 6 of them for $3.50 (Employee discount ) and thus, if some of you guys need one it would be a matter of me putting it in a padded envelope and sending it to you.

Some things to know about it: It can only be configured to work with up to 8 buttons. It does work with Vista, and depending on what stick you use, it can have very high latency times. It also has trouble with store-bought wheels/rudders.

Not FIRST legal, but something to tinker around with in your spare time.\

Also, since 15 bucks isn't that much, You could also look at these.
