(USA)'. If anyone knows where and if these can still be found, I'd really like to get a second. Incidentally, the design is the same as the joystick shown on the 'controls' screen on the game Battle Squadron. (Very Good Game, btw.) Whether or not it's actually the same I don't know, but it looks like it... Bryan Ford GRGREF@BYUVM.BITNET
