That's what the big base on the higher quality joysticks is for (e.g., CH
Flightstick, Flightstick Pro, Logitech Wingman, Wingman Extreme,
Thrustmaster FSC Mark II).  Given enough desk space, I have absolutely no
problems controlling a joystick w/ one hand.  This is especially true w/
the Wingman Extreme - it has a metal base (as does the Mark II) making it
quite heavy.

Another option would be buying one of those upside down t-shaped stands
that you mountyour joystick on top (via velcro) and place the t-shaped part
between your thigh and your chair.  It's supposed to keep the joystick from
moving as well, but, from looking at it, I would think it'd be ackward when
standing up.

You use a mouse while playing games like Doom?
