Here is another joystick related question. Today I tried to order a game i/o board for my AT. I found one advertised in Computer Shopper for $15 (mail order). So I call, but the rep. warns that the board is for XT's only and that it won't work in AT's. Is this right? I thought most any XT board works in an AT? Does anyone know of a cheap board that works in an AT? - Thanks, Carl Kadie Inductive Learning Group University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign UUCP: {ihnp4,pur-ee,convex}!uiucdcs!kadie CSNET: kadie@UIUC.CSNET ARPA: kadie@M.CS.UIUC.EDU (kadie@UIUC.ARPA)

I picked up a card for my AT at one of the many computer shows that come around throughout the year. It is your basic no-name (could be a Diamond) that has 2 serial ports, a parallel port and a joystick port. The total cost was $45.00 and that included the extra $15.00 I spend for the second serial port. Its been running fine and works with all programs Ive tried that uses the joystick.
