	I've tried all three and I've found a great amount of favor with 
the keyboard.  The mouse I have to pick up and put back, the joystick 
drifts, the keyboard seems to be the only accurate way for me to 
operate.  Doom seems to have some built in aiming correction 
devices.(Sort of like hitting the bastards up or down a level while being 
in the general direction.  Only this works for some degree side to side.)
	I admit, the the accuracy of the mouse is unimpeccable, the 
keyboard allows you to still hit the targets while being genrally close.  
I think what I really need is a cyberman if it gets special support from 
Doom.
