Saitek have stopped making the Cyborg Gold/Platinum!!

Cant find it anywhere, not even in PC World. Just been scouring for one for Leavey (who's PC I'm upgrading today)

Evo is available cheaper now though :) About £25 most places :)

But RIP the Cyborg
War Games: The genre closest to perfect and yet furthest from it too. IL-2, ARMA2, Call of Duty.. the list of close to ideal and far from perfect is eternal...

dug out an old MS sidewinder precision 2 or something for now.. so am back in the air. Love the tempest /.. drilled a few 60lb rockets into some Panzers on warclouds just now..... (after making a few weird 360s on the runway)

.. am gutted about the Cyborg 3D.. refuse to use the evo cos of the totally stupid throttle position( which I use for prop pitch as it happens.. cos I have the throttle on the mouse wheel)

re Tack IR... yep... one day. But thats gonna be after a new joystick/computer/monitor/house/built in cockpit under stairs/ etc :D
