I have a few questions: 
 
1)  What is the cheapest/easiest way to use an LCD TV as a display?
    What is the best graphics I could get out of one?  CGA?  EGA? ...
    
2)  What is the easiest way to have two graphics displays running at the
    same time?  I want 2 LCD TV's displaying different graphics at the
    same time.  I assume I would need 2 graphics cards...
 
3)  Does anyone know there exists an analog one-handed/baseless joystick?
    (uses pendulums or mercury switchs to tell the tilt)

4)  Does anyone know of some other sort of input device that can give 
    rotation information?

5)  How do I get data from the game port?  Code would be wonderful, but I would
    be satisfied with port #'s, etc.

6)  I will personnally kiss anyone who can give me information on how to get
    hi-res position data from the nintendo Power Glove.
