Joystick. Or, more accurately, joystick, throttle, and rudder pedals, all from CH Products.

I'm equally (un)skilled with both, but prefer mouse and Belkin Nostromo n52 programmed with macros.

I have a joystick, and after much practice I can now honestly say...
...that I am complete rubbish with it. I keep trying, but every day I grow more and more tempted to just unplug it and go back to the mouse. It wasn't so bad with my Bomber, but I got a TIE Interceptor today (how in the nine hells do you people fit ANYTHING into one of those?), and it's too bloddy fast for me to even think of using the joystick with. I just can't do it. I imagine that the joystick will go within a few days. I am not capable of learning how to control something that fast.

I've been using a mouse for what I would guess to be nearly 15 years. I've had a joystick for about a month. I simply cannot figure the things out.

6 stick (incl ps2)
3 mouse
Joystick here as well. Least in beta. never purchased it live, but since it came with ROTW I figured I'd give it another chance.

Well, I do both...
On duty missions, I use my Saitek X45 throttle/stick combo, but for quests I do the mouse...for some reason I have better control with the mouse.
I know, I'm a strange bird.
