Go to Post There will always be a point in your FIRST experience when you realize you can get away with something that is against the rules. It is at that point when you have a choice to make about your own personal ethics, and what sort of example you will set for your students. - ToddF [more]

What you can do is take the USB joysticks, and rewire them yourselves so they output pure analog (which isn't ver difficult). You just need to wire up a connector for the OI, then the other end hooks up the the pots and switches on the joy stick.
RS-232 is 9- or 25-pin [DB-9 or DB-25]. These are 15-pin [DB-15] analog connectors.
