I bought one of the 2nd-gen force-feedback Sidewinder sticks for use with FS2000/CFS1&2 a couple years ago. what you people do to your SideWinders, but mine has lasted me many, many years of relatively rough use without any problems.

How many people do you think go out and buy a new set of car-simulation controllers regularly? Good enough is good enough. Obviously, I haven't bought any MS controllers in that time, why would I? I'm willing to bet there are a slew of people out there like me that have their controllers they like and use and have no intention of buying another. (Amazingly it's worked on every MS OS since 95). I've had it and used it exclusively as my only game controller on my pc for 6 years. It is fully mappable to any keyboard configuration required.

I use a gravis gamepad pro, exactly the same as a PlayStation controller. As for why sales suck for PC controllers, well maybe this can explain it:
