For some reason these comments made me think of those gaming interfaces
hard-core gamers use for flight sims and the like. I had a vision of a
dedicated "Iron Men and Wooden Ships" gamer who had a USB-powered
replica of a ships wheel for the rudder control of a tall-ship simulation.

The scary part is that I'd probably like such a game.
