Not sure if it's a proprietary Gravis GRIP or pre-GRIP digital joystick or what, but I picked up a brand new unused one and I'd like to do a little gaming with it on my windows pc...

Well, you'll need a 15-pin to USB adapter.

I have ordered one from Ebay but my searching indicates that's not going to work; it seems to use the same odd Gravis protocol as the xterminator gamepad, and may have needed a proprietary interface/driver.
