These are a tad more expensive in Oz (several hundred dollars) but still
far cheaper that FlyBoxes and control-loaded joysticks. This makes them
seem like an attractive option for prototyping and demos etc...

Has anybody used a Thrustmaster product with an SGI? Are there any
publically availble drivers or documentation for connecting up one to an
SGI and driving a Performer application? I know that such material
exists for connecting up a Logitech Cyberman as a spaceball
"alternative". The big plus for the FlyBox is that there is existing
Performer support for it...
