I exclusively use the keyboard.  My joystick- a Kraft Mach I, I believe- does
not work too well with the game, and I DETEST using a mouse.  As others have
said, CyberMan support would be really nice.  I went out and purchased a
cyberman recently, and I think that it has a lot of potential, particularly in
flight simulators.  (I'm going to install X-Wing as soon as I'm done here:-))

As an aside, I should say to all those who are considering getting a CyberMan;
it is NOT the perfect home VR device.  The control for yaw (tilting side to side)
is difficult, since the thing is not as wide as your hand is; it is also
difficult to use the buttons without moving your cursor.  With some 
practice, you can overcome this, but it's unnerving at first.

Anyway- ID, PLEASE support the CyberMan at some point.  Please?
