Sidewinders Will No Longer Be Made

Thinking of any hack with a Sidewinder product?   Article below says that Microsoft is getting out of the business.  Maybe some liquidation sales at the stores.

well... the dual strike and the gameport version sidewinder have been discontinued for some time.

But I guess it's sorta sad to see 'em leave that part of the periph. market.
