...and I was all happy with the A-10 Warthog HOTAS I got for xmas with intent to use it for my Mechwarrior Online control system. THAT sir is an applaudable labor of love. Well done!

That...what...how...why....DEAR LORD THAT'S AMAZING. That is, without a doubt, the most mind blowing thing I have seen, full-stop. You, sir, have just made my awesome people list, just one question. When can I come over and play with it?

Until this moment, I had suffered from the delusion that finding room for my computer room was the big flathunting problem I had.

I was wrong.

The biggest flathunting problem I have is not being remotely this awesome.

That's what I call dedication. The ultimate geek dream of any battletech fan and you live this. I lack the words to express my respect for you, sir!

Kudos to your wife for the nice pose. :P
