Performs as expected

I just tried the PZ31A on my PC (under Windows XP Pro) and found it worked very well with an old flight-simulator game called TIE Fighter (Collecter's Edition). The original TIE Fighter game did not allow controls to be remapped, but using the PZ31A I was able to group all the commonly used controls into an area easy reached by my fingers.

I would have given the PZ31A 5-stars but the only down-notch is for the software configuration. Configuring the profile was not intuitive to understand, and took me over two hours of reading the manual and digging on the internet to figure out how to get the key-customization setup. If you have no patience with studying for a few hours how to configure a controller then you should probably avoid.

Also, as of June 6, 2008, the image in this particular Amazon listing does not match the version I received. The unit seems to be a newer model and doesn't appear as snazzy as the grey and black-colored unit in the picture listed. One difference is the manual for the profile configuration indicates there are three color-coordinated configurations, being blue, green and red, but on the unit I received there was a faint yellow-color in place of the blue color.
