Wow! Thanks to everyone who sent me mail! I'd reply individually, but
there was LOTS and being the holidays I'm lazy. So, THANKS!
 
I'm sure there are all kinds of people out there who could use the
same info...so here goes...
 
The wiring info for nintendo powerglove to Pc conversion is in an
article called "Reach out and touch your data" by Howard Eglowstein
page 283 of the July 1990 issue of Byte (The actual plans are on 288)
The conversion is fairly simple and straightforward involving little
more than splicings...
 
There is a powerglove mailing list: listserv@boxer.nas.nasa.gov send
message: subscribe glove-list <your name>

sunee.uwaterloo.ca has related files in /pub/glove (avail through anon
FTP) -it is here, in the read.me file that I first got the reference
to the JUNE issue of Byte (This is obviously incorrect....could
someone maybe tell the sysadmin so others don't go chasing the wrong
issue..)
 
Once again, thanks yous to everyone who replied!
