I've got 4 Sidewinders for $5 a pop on the way from Computergeeks.com so I'm starting to think about how I'll set them up in a cabinet. Can anyone tell me if the "M" button on the gamepad would be useful? I've seen it described as a sort of shift button, which in effect doubles your buttons. Is this in the hardware of the gamepad itself, or is it simply a function of the Sidewinder software? Would it be possible to wire up a toggle switch that would let me switch between two sets of button functions? I was thinking I could have the six or so play buttons do double duty as admin buttons.

Thanks,
EA
