Desktop with Controller

Desktop with Controller

2003-12-16 by endlessnessisticman

Does anyone think that the MnM will be any less featured if you had 
a desktop with a controller that has a joystick?  I know there are 
the leds on the top of the kb version.  Are they very useful?

personally...I think that if the controller's joystick has the same
assignments (pitch to left/right and modulation to up/down; or vice
versa) then no. it will act the same as the MnM's joystick and you'll
have the same features.

BUT: having the keyboard attached to the MnM and having it (and the
joystick) always at hand is VERY nice. whether or not you think it's
necessary is your decision.

they're very pretty! :-) I don't find them particularly useful for
programming; but I do really like them (and have gotten quite a few
comments from friends saying the same).
