Sooo...What on earth can I do to get this thing working through USB? Are there alternatives?

Bit confused about all this, read the FAQ and a few threads though. Will post better pics if necessary.


ps. notice the sexy hand and even sexier ferrari pillowsheet!  :P

The sexy hand makes me answer....

I would run those wires through an encoder to connect to a USB. An Ipac or Keywiz.

Show us who's attached to that hand, you'll receive your answers.  ;D

Square buttons? Weird....

Anyhow, get a KeyWiz (GPWiz for USB) or Ipac and wire the puppy up. You may have to do some minor rewiring or use a wiring block if the grounds aren't common.
