I lost my x45 the other...well year to be honest. I got home from uni and didn't really think about it until I got my copy of FS this week. So I went hunting for it, destroyed two bedrooms looking for it! Cupbords, draws, under the bed, in the loft and in the garage. Couldn't find it anywhere. So today I decided to go through the garage again, turned the whole thing upside down, couldn't find it. Then I happend upon a white box, opened it up and there it was! Everything around it had been attacked by mice, and in all the other boxes I looked in, but the X45 just sat there, dusty but ok. So even though mice had chewed through a lot of cables the Saitek sat and excepted the punishment with no signs of damage anywhere.

Built to last.

Just thought I would let you know.

Regards
Paul

Did you take pics?

If so, tell the story to Saitek...they might like it enough to send you an X52. Smiley

Have just done it.

It's an x36 and x35 combo, not sure what the overall number is. It's pretty much the same as the x45 just not as colourfull or light-upie.
