>> Is there some reason TnP will be more popular in Europe than here in the states? <<

Why, yes! Because they all speak the same language, TalkNPlay will naturally.... oh wait a minute.... Why, yes! Since the economies in Europe are so much stronger than in the US, people have more money to throw.... uh oh.... Why, yes! Since Europe has a higher computers per capita ratio than the US.... Yes! Everybody knows that products which miserably bomb in the US always go on to be very desirable to Europeans... Plus, Thrustmaster has a much, much bigger marketing presence there....

One thing about Europe, though... being far away, TMSR can spin rumors about how things are going there which can't immediately be checked out. Some guy was hinting on Yahoo about all the wonderful things happening with TMSR Europe a month or two ago.... Sort of like how well Zonagen was supposedly doing in Mexico.
