Anyone want to write a simple OS targeting the VirtualBox paravirtualization interface?

@cypnk

corollary: You don't have to agree with everything someone has said, no matter how important they were. (and in fact you probably shouldn't)

@logomancer
I think if you want to go hardcore the thrustmaster warthog is still very good.
(Pretty much all thrustmaster stuff is good).

I've also heard good things about the logitech x series (x52, x56)

@logomancer Which HOTAS you looking at?
@drwho woohoo
@cypnk How about just boxing? Full protective gear.

I think the only way I'd be ok with this is if the old cast came back, but were all working various soul crushing infosec jobs at big corporations.

@vertigo @thamesynne @cypnk The software isn't too big of a deal as long as you plan ahead.

ie: what technologies are you sure are going to still be around in 20-30 years?
C++, TCP, Ethernet, SQL

Hardware is a huge issue.
Back in the day you have a parallel port. super easy to use and customize. Today you have USB, which is a mess.

Also modern hardware fails quickly (electrolytic caps and whatnot) and it can be difficult to get modern hardware to run old software.
