Here is a better link... Mac Fix (http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=25652)
It will let my USB controllers work in 10.3.. WEEEEEE... oh wait I still only get to play about four flight sims :(
Sorry but there are no Mac versions of the Control Manager coming so whatever you get in the games is all you get as far as programming goes.

Seems like a pretty hard-line stance Micheal... why is there no possibilty of this? Surely, as one of the worlds leading and most well-known controller brands, you'd be keen to increase your marketshare even more by giving mac users the same tools as users of that other excuse for an OS??
Oh, BTW.. what are the 4 flight sims you reffered to?? WB's, TR , ? and ??

Sorry but Bob Church is a Windows guy. For the amount of money it would cost to have some one generate a Mac Control Manager we could aford to buy all of the the Mac Gamers in the world a new PC with Windows XP on it.
It's almost like asking why we don't have a Linux version of the Control Manager.
Fourth one is X-Plane (http://www.x-plane.com/)

Don't forget Dawn of Aces.
I'm also a mac user, but I built a PC just to play flight sims. Actually, just to play Battle of Britain. I use my mac for internet, some games, and work, my PC for flying
It's worth it.

Most of the people I work with are mac users, either professionally or at home. They are very understanding of my having a Windows machine. They love hearing my stories about setting it up and trying to solve various problems as it confirms their belief in the mac. I just spent a weekend reinstalling xp and all my drivers.
The fact that I only use my PC for flight sims also lets them forgive my dabbling in the Dark Side. :D
