Hmmmm... interesting....

Yeah, I got none of those.  I'm pretty sure it's going to work, I guess my original question about 'how to test it' should have really been more along the lines of 'how do I hook this up to my PC' :)

Yeah, that's the one I found on the www (although I didn't know it was also posted here) where basically he just connected the optical boards to a mouse hack, which is probably what I'll end up doing since it looks like connecting it via the plug is going to put it in 'joystick' mode.

Thanks
