From what I'm hearing the Lions are burning up the phone line trying to get a deal done. It's just that so is every other team in the league. I'm sure the price is crazy right now.

Pretty much, yeah. Only thing not 100% yet are some of the more obscure peripherals. Example: Eye and head tracking. While sticks can and do work in Linux, it would be nice if VKB, Virpil, etc had native Linux calibration tools.
