I haven't had a video game since the very first nitendo so if this is a stupid question bare with me...

Since Microsoft makes the Xbox will my microsoft sidewinder steerring wheel work with the xbox? I have two of those steering wheels but I never use them; however, I am thinking that if I had an X box I would use them.
If they work, or if there is an adapter I could buy to make them work, I think that would be reason enough for me to buy the xbox.
Thanks for your help.

Looks like I've gotta wait longer for xbox. I probably shouldn't be spending so much. Just had to have a toy. Also picked up a wireless hub/router and nic card.

MIKE, I've got internet in the bathroom now! Bwahahaha!

Boy am I dense! I just went and read a preview where it talks about how you get to drive an S2K around city streets, to and from work everyday. Sounds like a great game!

I like Dreamcast the best, and you can get unbelieveable buys on it too...They just happened to get run outta Dodge by the other deeper pockets. This was no different than when "Tucker" built the Tucker Torpedo Automobile years ago (Seen the movie?)..... It was better than anything the big 3 of Chrysler, GM, Ford, could come up with, so out of their jealousies and deep $$$ pockets, they ran Mr. Tucker outta business, even though he was clearly the better car maker. Looks like the same thing happened on the Video Gaming playing field. I've played on all the systems now, and would still purchase the Dreamcast. There is a plethora of quality games available..... The graphics are every bit as impressive as X-Box, PS2, or the Cube, and the price is rock bottom..... $79 for a brand new console at last check. Later, Kevin

I've been wanting to pick one up. I abandoned Sega. I wouldn't mind having it though.

I picked up a Game Cube the other day purely because of the price tag. I like it a lot! I heard luigi's mansion was sort of weak, but I have wave race and the star wars game. They're both really fun and visually impressive. Especially the star wars game. Man, it's pretty!
